Kartesia, the European specialist provider of capital solutions for small and mid-sized companies, is pleased to announce the creation of a full time CSR & ESG position, a role that will be filled by Coralie De Maesschalck starting this year.

Kartesia, the European specialist provider of capital solutions for small and mid-sized companies, is pleased to announce a debt financing package for the continued growth and development of Apollo Kallidus Holdco Ltd (“Kallidus”), a provider of talent management software and Digital Learning to companies.   

Kartesia is pleased to announce that the investments of KCO IV in Cromology and Ahi+ have both been repaid.

We are pleased to announce a number of richly deserved promotions, following an incredibly busy year. Most notably we will be splitting the role of Head of Portfolio and ESG, which since 2015 has been held by Coralie De Maesschalck. From the new year Coralie will transition to  be dedicated to ESG full time, reflecting our increased dedication to ESG internally and with portfolio companies. 

In our last newsletter we focused on the immediate aftermath of the onset of the coronavirus pandemic and how Kartesia’s flexible approach meant we were able to first address the challenges faced by our portfolio companies by providing additional liquidity and then to continue deploying capital from our KSO and KCO funds.

This year has been a transformational one for Kartesia’s Senior Opportunities (KSO) strategy across Europe, which now has on-the-ground representation in all of our key markets – Spain, France, the DACH region, the Benelux and the UK – and has closed transactions in a number of these jurisdictions.
