Thrilled to announce the €650 million first closing of Eurazeo Growth Fund IV. With a target size of at least €1 billion, this marks a major milestone for our Growth platform, now managing €4 billion to back the next generation of global tech champions from Europe. EGF IV launches at a defining moment. Technological acceleration — particularly AI — is reshaping industries and compressing timelines. Our conviction remains strong: Europe’s talent, research depth, and values position it to lead in this new era. This first close is more than a number — it reflects deep confidence from our LPs in our strategy, our team, and the exceptional founders we support. It also highlights the strength of our ecosystem: bold investors, world-class operators, and visionary entrepreneurs. A special thanks to Benoist Grossmann, whose leadership and dedication have been instrumental throughout this fundraising journey 🚀 🚀 🚀 Proud of the road we've travelled — and even more excited for what’s ahead. #PrivateEquity #GrowthEquity #TechInvesting #AI #Eurazeo #EGFIV #Europe Links in the comments 👇 Eurazeo Hala Fadel Raluca Ragab Anne-Charlotte Philbert Romain MOMBERT Maud Gillot Armelle de Madre Riadh Dridi Philippe Vimard Laurent Le Moal Richard Meyer Forsting Ioana Iacobescu Inês Patrício David Rovick Arrojo Simon Boucher Francesco Mondini de Focatiis Sophia Aghzadi Joséphine Nordin d’Arc Sebastien Ouvry Maxime Wahab Matthieu Salmon Axel Mouré Héléna T.
