Climate, technology and healthcare: the three areas where Europe can demonstrate global leadership. "It is imperative that Europe captures this opportunity to be on the global stage and really create these champions, utilising the skill set of private equity.”
Giving people pensioners, savers, as well as consumers ultimately and participants in the real economy the opportunity to be part of that journey. I think that that gets me out of bed every morning.
My name is Alias Corroses. I'm a partner with federated Hermes GPE. from the four themes that we invest in.
I have personally concentrated my efforts on growth and technologyled growth uh over the last decade where we build the platform and that's my real passion that's what I really loved as part of looking at the deal flow that we were getting and seeing a opportunity and that area of opportunity was there because essentially Europe had a fantastic venture scene that developed during the 2010s that created I think of venture as a university that created the graduates that we could then invest in in the growth stage from 2015 onwards.
So when I look at Europe, I see three areas that I see as globally leading. There is climate, there's technology and there's healthcare. And in these areas, I think Europe has a real leadership potential in particular domain.
So for example, in technology within fintech, when I look at climate, I think I see a tremendous opportunity for Europe to play a a globally leading role at.
And when I look at healthcare, what's happening in life sciences and the digitization of life sciences, Europe has great success stories already. Look at Novon Nordis for example. So it is imperative for me that Europe captures this opportunity to be on the global stage and really create these champions from essentially the venture and the growth scene utilizing the skill set in private equity particularly around value creation and buy and build to create these European champions and I think that journey giving people pensioners, savers as well as consumers ultim ultimately in participants in the real economy.
The opportunity to be part of that journey. I think that that gets me out of bed every morning.
