Living our values

"I have always been insatiably curious. It is my curiosity that kept me moving from one sector to another, always wanting to learn more: I started studying to become an electrician in vocational school, moved to polymer engineering at university, entered the professional world as a consultant, and then decided to join the healthcare sector after my MBA. Apax values my curiosity, and requires me to “learn, adapt and grow” every time I approach a new opportunity to invest."
