Overview
What they do
Founded in 2019 by former Advent International executives Richard Baker and Andy Dawson, bd-capital brings a highly differentiated "operator-led" investment approach to the European mid-market. The firm operates as a single, integrated team of investors and former business leaders who work side-by-side from origination to exit. Positioned as a sub-sector specialist, bd-capital avoids mega-cap deals, focusing instead on structurally growing mid-sized companies in the UK, Benelux, and Iberia. They have built a strong reputation for their "Operators Club" model, which pairs traditional private equity discipline with the practical wisdom of experienced CEOs.
