The global private equity group affiliated with Robert W. Baird & Co, Baird Private Equity will set up an investment team focused on offering growth equity capital to smaller, high potential companies in China or with substantial operations and growth opportunities in Greater China.

Baird Private Equity, owning 45 investment professionals in the United States, Europe and Asia, makes venture capital, growth equity and buyout investments in the US, Greater China and Europe. It has raised about $ 2.4 billion in venture and buyout capital across the US and European markets.

Paul Carbone, Director of Baird Private Equity pointed out that as private equity has entered China, smaller high potential companies have been neglected; however, Baird Capital Partners Asia is well-positioned to support smaller, high growth companies and their management teams. BCPA is an ideal choice for companies in China that want have access to the global financial resources and operating expertise.

In fact, BCPA is the second phase of Baird Private Equity’s strategic expansion in China. In 2003, a team of up to 20 operating professionals was built in China. They helped more than 15 Baird Private Equity portfolio companies create value by means of sourcing, manufacturing or distributing in Asia.
