Investment thesis

Athene Capital Group spans private equity, venture capital, growth capital, project finance, and private debt. The firm builds diversified portfolios in partnership with its Investor Partners — typically UHNWIs, family offices, and institutional investors who take a long-term view — facilitating investments in private companies across the globe with the potential to generate high growth and downside protection. Athene Capital seeks to partner with exceptional management teams, entrepreneurs, and family businesses, with flexibility to support companies across their lifecycle (from high-growth venture capital to high cash-flow mid-market businesses) and across the capital structure (minority private equity, debt, and more). Its four divisions — Venture Capital, Energy Capital, Expansion Capital, and Secondary Capital — reflect its multi-strategy approach.
