EdgeCap Partners

Edgecap is a mid-market private equity firm targeting control-oriented investments into high-quality companies in Europe, predominantly in the CEE and Southern European regions.

Backed by family capital, we seek to deploy EUR 20-100 million equity per investment and partner with ambitious founders and management teams to build and grow strong local businesses into regional/pan-European champions.

Edgecap was founded by Kristjan Piilmann and Chris Backes, who have over two decades of combined private equity and investment banking experience at bulge bracket firms including PSG Equity LLP, Novalpina Capital LLP, Morgan Stanley, Citi and Goldman Sachs.
