Keyhaven Capital Partners adds to team

Wednesday, October 30, 2024
Opalesque Industry Update - Keyhaven Capital Partners, the specialist private equity firm dedicated to the European lower mid-market through co-underwriting transactions with local sponsors, announces two new hires to further bolster its Investor Relations team.

In a newly created function for the firm, Patrick Gibson will hold responsibility for capital formation. Before joining Keyhaven, Patrick sourced funding for co-investment and secondary transactions on an independent basis and also provided GP advisory services to lower mid-market private equity, credit and infrastructure firms. He has a particular focus on US, UK and Benelux-based LPs. Previously Patrick worked in placement and headed Investor Relations for Deltec Private Bank in the Bahamas. He began his career in US Equity Sales covering European Hedge Funds and Asset Managers for several brokerage firms.

In addition, Birgitt Schmidhofer has been appointed as Marketing Lead, supporting the development of Keyhaven's social media and marketing strategy across all platforms. This includes focusing on online content, PR and branding. Before joining Keyhaven, Birgitt was a Digital Marketing Coordinator at Encore, a global event production company.

Claus Stenbaek, Managing Partner at Keyhaven said: "We are excited to bring such talented individuals on board our Investor Relations team. Their experience and insights will greatly enhance our ability to engage with investors and communicate our strategic vision. These appointments also reflect our ongoing commitment to providing outstanding service to investors and will further solidify Keyhaven's position in the market. Please join me in extending a warm welcome to Patrick and Birgitt."
