Living our values

An important mentor once told me that people do business with people they like and trust. That advice has become my compass for showing up, being interested, and deeply respecting those I work with. At Apax, I found a team proud of its heritage and scale, but with the humility to keep hustling every day to earn the trust of our stakeholders. That’s why “impact through insight and tenacity” is the Apax value that resonates most strongly with me.

Pedro's Story

Pedro’s idealistic teenage years led him to teach at 16 and to join climate marches and pursue development work soon after. Today, supporting entrepreneurs and management teams tackling global challenges feels like a return to those early passions. He is energised by the capabilities and sector expertise Apax brings to the mid-market, and by the transformative journeys of the businesses the firm partners with. Outside of work, Pedro enjoys spending time at the pool with his two young boys and quietly hopes they’ll one day share his love for water polo.
