Defense report

Once considered off-limits to many investors, the defense sector has become an area of interest for private equity managers and LPs alike. In this special report, we examine the geopolitical events that have driven this change and why the shift is playing out with particular force in Europe.

Investing in technology

The report explores how private equity firms are working to future-proof deals in the software sector following the so-called ‘SaaSpocalypse’ earlier this year, and how sponsors are approaching AI risks and opportunities more broadly across the tech ecosystem. Plus, we look at what’s driving growing PE interest in sectors such as cybersecurity and the space economy, as well as analyzing the latest tech-focused fundraising trends.
