As the association representing Europe’s private equity, venture capital, and infrastructure sectors, as well as their investors, Invest Europe and national associations utterly condemn the invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation on February 24, and stand in full support of the Ukrainian people.
Below, you can find the steps we have taken to recognise and do what we currently can to address the terrible situation currently unfolding in Ukraine.
Europe’s private equity and venture capital industry is reliant on global value-chains and investment opportunities. As such, we are more than just observers of political events: we are investors, partners to entrepreneurs, employers and a continuous force for growth in markets and people.
We stand behind the people of Ukraine. We stand together as an industry.
Joint statement: Actively supporting the Ukraine
