APAX Partners

Information Technologies, which lie at the heart of the strategy and processes of any business, is a sector in constant flux. The opening of a company’s information systems to the outside world, the development of network computing and roaming systems, changing business models and the reservoir of innovation specific to this industry all mean that this sector offers numerous investment opportunities.

In concrete terms, we identify investment opportunities in certain segments of the Information Technologies that match our expertise and include hardware and software technologies, emerging application areas, and services based on the mastery of these new technologies.

Our desire to participate in projects with the potential to create high added value and supported by ambitious entrepreneurs has resulted in our investments in young companies such as ASK (smartcards and contactless tickets), Hubwoo (online purchasing systems and processes), and in more established companies such as CEGID (financial and accounting software), Cartesis (publisher of Business Performance Management software), Parkeon (world leader in on-street parking management solutions), IEE (developer of sensors for automobile security systems), Odyssey (financial software), GFI (IT service provider) and Altran (European leader in innovation consulting).
