Living our values

"'We succeed as one global firm' is the Apax value that most deeply resonates with me. Having lived and been educated on four different continents growing up, I was initially attracted to Apax due to its global reach and the diversity of its investment professionals. Pursuing investment opportunities across the globe, internationalizing our portfolio companies, and working alongside colleagues across our various offices who bring a diversity of experiences and perspectives, truly excites me."
