21 Invest was founded in Italy in 1992 by Alessandro Benetton to invest in mid-market companies and make them grow. In 1998, 21 Invest partnered with a local team in France with the scope of building a top-tier European group together. The development continued with the establishment of a new local team in Poland in 2013. In these years of activity, 21 Invest has supported dozens of companies by helping them flourish sustainably and persistently. This long-lasting experience enables 21 Invest to be a renowned mid-market player in Europe with the expertise to create a pipeline of quality investment opportunities and to react to the ever-changing macroeconomic environment. Our goal is to make our portfolio companies prosper by enhancing their competitiveness while advancing the economic and social conditions in the communities in which they operate. We have completed more than 100 investments and raised €2 bn from institutional investors worldwide over the last 28 years of activity.
