This is not a fragile market - it is learned discipline.
For HPE Growth, 2025 was about rigid execution. In a market that continues to test patience and discipline, we focused on doing what matters most: building real and profitable growth companies, supporting founders through complexity, and returning capital where we could.
Our strategy has always been to help European companies become the best in their category, not just locally but globally. When that happens, strategic buyers notice. Tiqets and ZAVA are strong examples of European businesses built with global ambition and execution, ultimately finding a natural home with larger platforms that shared their vision.
