HgCapital Trust

TMT as a sector covers a very wide market. Driven by our thematic approach, HgCapital’s TMT team is focused on specific sub-sectors including vertical market application software, private electronic marketplaces, B2B media information/publishing and telecoms / datacentre operators. Within these sub-sectors, we have invested in high quality market leaders with diverse customer bases, and which feature subscription-based business models generating predictable revenues and cash flows. We regularly conduct top-down thematic research within the wider sector, to continue to identify and assess further repeatable investment themes where we can invest our time to develop proprietary expertise.

Our well-resourced, dedicated team means that we are well placed to identify, assess and complete investments quickly and thoroughly. We work to bring our experience and knowledge to support management teams, aiming to have the knowledge of a trade buyer coupled with the speed and focused delivery of a financial buyer. The team benefits from the depth and breadth of many years of TMT private equity experience, and is complemented by an extensive network of industry experts and advisors. Visma is a good example of taking a strong regional player, and then helping it scale to become a regional technology champion.
