Inflexion has officially opened its doors to its new office in New York.
The New York office is focused on providing support to Inflexion’s European portfolio companies looking to grow in North America with a focus on transformational acquisitions, a statement read. It also provides a base to build closer relationships with North American investors, advisers and strategic partners, the statement continued.
The office is led by Ben Meyer, who was appointed at the end of January as partner and head of North America. Since January, Inflexion has made significant progress with its North American practice, including opening its New York City office, building its local team and helping Inflexion’s portfolio companies expand into North America, according to a statement.
The North America team will comprise nine professionals – seven US appointments and two secondees from Inflexion’s European-based investment team.
“Many of our portfolio companies already see North America as a key market for growth, and this new office will allow us to provide on-the-ground support,” said Flor Kassai, managing partner at Inflexion, in a statement. “At the same time, it strengthens our relationships with North American investors who share our enthusiasm for backing ambitious businesses.”
