EVCA becomes Invest Europe: The Voice of Private Capital
01 October 2015
The European Private Equity and Venture Capital Association announces that it has changed its name to ‘Invest Europe - The Voice of Private Capital’.
As Invest Europe, the association will demonstrate that it is the principal authority representing private capital and continue to engage with policymakers in Brussels and national capitals, as well as global investors, the media and public. These efforts are underpinned by Invest Europe’s research, viewed as the definitive resource for private equity and venture capital data. Invest Europe Chief Executive, Dörte Höppner, said: “This marks an important milestone for our organisation. As Invest Europe, we will be better placed to articulate how vital Europe’s private capital investors are to the economy and to support policymakers in developing solutions to Europe’s growth challenge. As demonstrated by the announcement of the Commission’s proposals for the Capital Market Union announced yesterday, our industry is important to Europe’s dynamic economy. With our change of name, we hope to ensure that our association is at the forefront of the debate regarding Europe’s economic future.”
