Pantheon appointed Leif Lindbäck, a 25-year private equity veteran and former CVC Capital Partners co-head, to spearhead its secondaries team. Lindbäck, who previously led technology investments at Blackstone and Charterhouse, will focus on GP-led continuation vehicles amid growing competition for senior buyout talent. Technology remains the dominant sector for continuation deals, with Pantheon leveraging his expertise to navigate rapid industry shifts. $13.5bn in secondaries assets under management underscores the firm’s scale, while its $1.1bn Pantheon Secondary Opportunities Fund II reflects sustained institutional demand.
