Private equity firm Horizon Capital has announced a new Ukraine-focused USD 200 million private equity fund, the largest Ukrainian fund raised over the past decade.
Unveiled at Ukraine House in Davos alongside the World Economic Forum, the fund was launched with an anchor commitment from Western NIS Enterprise Fund and attracted investments from the EBRD, FMO, IFC, PROPARCO, DEG, IFU with over one-third of capital raised from institutional investors, foundations, family offices and other private investors.
The new fund enjoys strong backing from existing investors of Horizon Capital’s prior funds, who contributed over 55% of total commitments.
“This fund is a testament to the new generation of “business heroes” in Ukraine, visionary entrepreneurs leading high-growth export-oriented and domestic businesses,” commented Horizon Capital’s Founding Partner and CEO Lenna Koszarny.
