Apposite Capital is a specialist healthcare and life sciences private equity investor based in the UK. The firm operates two separate strategies. The first focuses on providing primary capital to growth-stage companies operating in the medical devices, life science tools, diagnostics, healthcare IT and pharmaceutical outsourcing sectors, primarily in the UK. The second focuses on majority buyout transactions across the healthcare and life sciences sectors, in the UK and Europe.
Reason for commitment from British Business Bank
This is the Bank’s first commitment to Apposite Capital. Apposite Healthcare Growth I will support the growth of health technology companies, primarily in the UK, aligning with the Bank’s strategy to support the UK’s most promising companies in the Life Sciences sector. In addition, the fund aims to address the shortage of scale-up capital for UK life sciences companies approaching a growth inflection, which aligns with the Bank’s strategy to create deeper pools of scale up funding.
