At NorthEdge, we know the value that the private equity industry brings to businesses and regional economies. It’s what we do, day in and day out.

The sector is a driving force for change, playing a powerful role in the economy as investors pledge millions of pounds into businesses every year to encourage growth and opportunities.

Unfortunately, there’s often a negative preconception around the role private equity plays in society, and we’re committed to tackling this head-on. Fundamentally, we believe our role is to support businesses to improve resilience and accelerate growth – that is much harder to do if a business doesn’t have a strong approach to people, culture and values.

“The positive impact that private equity firms have on society should not be underestimated,” begins Lucie in her opinion piece for the Yorkshire Post.

While profit was once considered the only metric of success, many people have since expanded their view and are focused on what businesses need to do to attract talent, clients and investors.

Our mission at NorthEdge is to ensure every investment we make has a positive impact, on the economy, society and on our planet.
