Paris-based InfraVia Capital Partners has raised €8 billion for its sixth European infrastructure fund, exceeding its original €5-€7 billion target. The firm launched InfraVia European Fund VI in December 2023 and has already surpassed its predecessor's €5 billion close from 2022. Sources confirm the fund is significantly oversubscribed ahead of its final close.

This latest milestone represents a 60 percent increase over Fund V's capital raised and places the vehicle €1 billion above its initial target range. The fund has attracted 150 investors from North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, with approximately half of the capital coming from existing limited partners. This demonstrates a 100 percent re-up rate from previous investors.

The fund employs a core-plus and value-add strategy targeting brownfield European mid-market assets across digital, energy transition, transport, and social infrastructure sectors. It aims for a 15 percent gross IRR and has already deployed capital through acquiring an 80 percent stake in French industrial marine services firm Louis Dreyfus Armateurs.
