A fund designed to carry out co-investment operations with specialist investors, supporting projects related to health sciences, financing everything from scientific validation experiments for companies emerging from research in Catalonia to accompanying subsequent investments carried out by specialized venture capital funds.
The Catalunya Lidera Investment Fund, endowed with €285 million, is structured as an umbrella fund that brings together several highly specific instruments designed to address a series of challenges aimed at consolidating the leadership and local roots of large companies, while also strengthening the growth of key and future-oriented segments of our economy.
This fund, together with the venture capital instruments already managed by the ICF, totaling €360 billion, reinforces our commitment to economic growth and enables us to optimally cover all possible stages of investment, from the early beginnings of a project to the growth phases of established companies.
