Sullivan Street Partners wins Independent Sponsor of the Year at the Mergermarket British Private Equity Awards!
Sullivan Street Partners has won Independent Sponsor of the Year at the Mergermarket British Private Equity Awards! The award marks the culmination of the most active 12 months in our 15 year history, with four new platform investments – UKAT: Private Addiction Rehabilitation & Mental Health Services, ZELUS, Authorized Licensee of NIKE, Inc., Ancora Group and Senior plc’s Aerostructures business – together with a refinancing of Octavius Infrastructure, a strategic bolt-on for UKAT (The Providence Projects ) and the extremely successful exit of Tivoli.
We are proud to be recognised for the strategy underpinning these transactions, focussing on complex mid-market buyouts, be they carve-outs, scale-ups or legally and structurally complex situations, always applying a people-centric and risk-pricing mindset. This approach has consistently delivered outsized returns while building market leading businesses in close partnership with management teams, investors and advisors.
A sincere thank you to the judging panel and to all those who showed their support by voting. Congratulations to all the winners and nominees in all the other categories.
Zeina Bain, Oliver Marshall, Layton Tamberlin, Richard Sanders, Ollie Smith, Tiaan Coetzee, Marta Serra Fernandez-Victorio, Jack Elkington, Benjamin Clyde-Smith, Raghav Gupta and Emma Bay
