Healthcare Private Equity
Specialty-pharmacy and infusion assets thehealthcareinvestor.com remain in demand. SkyKnight Capital thehealthcareinvestor.com has signed a definitive agreement to invest in Apex Infusion, adding to momentum in outpatient care providers. At the larger end of the market, Warburg Pincus thehealthcareinvestor.com is leading an investor group taking a controlling interest in PANTHERx Rare, a rare-disease pharmacy, in a transaction valued at $7bn — a signal of sustained conviction in high-touch specialty distribution models.
AI Infrastructure
The line between technology and real assets infrastructureinvestor.com continues to blur. Nvidia infrastructureinvestor.com and partners have pledged $500bn to establish compute as a new "investable asset class," though whether institutional investors will treat it like traditional infrastructure remains an open question. A fresh paper from Houlihan Lokey infrastructureinvestor.com supplies the theory, describing a virtuous circle between energy and digital infrastructure, while Nvidia's deals with investment managers illustrate the practice behind the same $500bn buildout.
Renewables & Allocations
Fundraising resilience infrastructureinvestor.com contrasts with slowing deployment at some of the biggest allocators. Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners infrastructureinvestor.com reached a $3bn final close for its second growth markets renewables strategy, drawing strong support from existing investors despite geopolitical headwinds, partner Niels Holst said. By contrast, Korea's National Pension Service infrastructureinvestor.com posted infrastructure AUM growth of just 13.4% in 2024, well below the 24.2% recorded in 2023 — evidence that even the largest sovereign pools are pacing commitments more cautiously.
