3i has been an active investor in Swiss businesses since we opened our Zurich office in 2000. Our local investment professionals work closely with 3i’s wider network across Europe, Asia and the US, assembling the deal team with the most relevant sector experience for each investment opportunity we assess.

The Swiss economy offers many opportunities to invest in successful mid-cap companies.  As a strong partner for the Swiss Mittelstand, we invest across the German, French, and Italian-speaking regions of Switzerland. 3i is well placed to support strong medium-sized companies to further exploit a leading market position.

Through our sector knowledge, we add value to the companies we partner at strategic and operational levels.  We use our international network and contacts to provide market insights that are essential for international growth and development.  In addition, we introduce businesses to experienced senior advisers, who provide access to industry perspectives and help to identify new strategies for success.

Some of our successful deals in Switzerland include Advanced Power, MIBAG Property + Facility Management, µ-blox, Goldbach Media and SR Technics.
