VIEW THE FULL VIDEO HERE: Don’t be fooled by the headlines – the Eurozone continues to represent 30 percent of global GDP and remains the largest economic zone in the world. And its private equity community remains very active taking advantage of interesting opportunities, according to Karsten Langer, a Partner at The Riverside Company and until June the Chairman of the European Private Equity 8 Venture Capital Association (EVCA). In an interview with Privcap, Langer discusses why Europe is not “one inflated Greece,” what progress he made while Chairman of the EVCA in helping European policymakers understand the benefits of private equity, the “binary” exit market, the new, tech-heavy opportunity in Eastern Europe, and why he remains optimistic about being a European GP. This program is sponsored by and was produced at the annual conference of SECA – the Swiss Private Equity 8 Corporate Finance Association.
