Investing in Technology

The private equity industry has been left reeling by recent volatility in the technology sector. In this special report, we examine how PE is remaining optimistic about tech despite ongoing disruption, renewing its dedication to value creation across the life cycle of an investment, and focusing on specific verticals such as enterprise software, cybersecurity and climate-related technology to maximise returns.

The fast-moving technology sector continues to attract private equity capital, with a continuing stream of deals across verticals and growing ticket sizes, as well as significant tech-focused fundraising activity. As competition ramps up and valuations remain high, this Private Equity International special report examines the sub-sectors turning GPs’ heads and asks how managers can stand out in a crowded market.

Fast-paced technological change has seen tech cease to be an industry vertical in its own right and become a horizontal, touching every corner of the market as it becomes more integral to our lives. Fund sizes are ballooning as tech becomes a broader, deeper market than ever before. Private Equity International takes a deep dive into the sector.
