Invest Europe governance

Invest Europe represents the European private equity industry, from venture capital to the largest private equity firms, as well as investors including insurers, family offices and pension funds.

Invest Europe is committed to fully and fairly representing the interests of each segment of our membership. To achieve this, members are organised into four Platforms – Limited Partner, Venture Capital, Mid-Market and Global Private Equity – each dedicated to supporting a specific member group.

The Platforms are led by a Council composed of industry practitioners elected by the membership. The Platform Chair is elected from amongst the members of the Council and is ultimately responsible for delivering the Platform action plan and ensuring that the Platform best represents its sector and membership.

The Platforms are overseen by the Invest Europe Board of Directors, which supersedes individual platforms on issues concerning the industry as a whole.

In addition, Invest Europe’s Platforms steer a number of Roundtables and Working Groups, also composed of industry practitioners, which report to the Platforms and Board of Directors.

Finally, there are six cross-Platform Committees, each supporting the association in relevant parts of its work and addressing specific issues affecting the membership as a whole.
