GPCA Members are invited to participate in a new series of global investor meetups happening over Zoom.
The series kicks off on Tuesday, 3 December at 9am ET on healthcare investing. Executive leadership from Global Healthcare Investment Corporation and Gates Foundation Strategic Investment Fund will talk about their approach to committing capital globally; other participating investors include Quadria Capital, AfricInvest, Tata Capital Healthcare Fund and TVM Healthcare, among others.
Building on the success of GPCA’s Leadership Councils, Member Meetups have been designed to connect private capital players – including fund, institutional, corporate and development finance investors – for unscripted sharing on market trends around the world.
In November 2020, Vinci Partners invested in Pro Infusion, a Brazil-based outsourcing company that provides pharmaceutical compounding services to support hospital demands and healthcare operators. Through minimizing pharmaceutical waste, Pro Infusion reduces inefficiencies in the supply chain and reduces costs to clients by 15-25%, expanding the healthcare system’s capacity to meet the needs of underserved populations.
With Vinci’s support, Pro Infusion opened branches outside of São Paulo, which further expanded and diversified its customer base while bringing quality treatment to regions without adequate healthcare access. The company entered three new states in Brazil and expanded to new product lines, including parenteral nutrition. The number of monthly treatments grew by 90% in two years by 2022, with underserved community members representing nearly 13% of the company’s patients.
GPCA and the Middle East Venture Capital Association (MEVCA) will host an investor training on Private Funds: Hot Fundraising Terms, Conditions and Trends, with partners from DLA Piper examining trends and important considerations in fund formation.
Topics will include:
What do fund terms and conditions look like in the current environment and how they are changing?
What structures are being used in the region to raise and deploy capital? What are the opportunities and challenges inherent in these approaches?
An interactive negotiation scenario, as well as opportunities to ask questions of the speaker faculty and discuss topics with industry peers.
