Pantheon Infrastructure has invested in a fibre-to-the-home telecom infrastructure company owned by EQT and Stonepeak.

The London-listed global infrastructure fund said it has invested €26.5m in the company that owns and operates broadband infrastructure in Western Europe alongside Stonepeak and EQT without disclosing the name of the investee company.

In October last year, ΒιΆΉΣ³»­ Real Assets reported that the EQT Infrastructure V fund and Stonepeak partnered to buy a 50% stake each in Delta Fiber.

Delta Fiber owns and operates approximately 50,000km fibre-based network infrastructure that connects approximately 900,000 households and businesses across the Netherlands.

Pantheon Infrastructure said its investment is part of the firm’s strategy of building a diversified portfolio of infrastructure assets, with a focus on sectors benefitting from structural growth drivers.

Richard Sem, partner at Pantheon, Pantheon Infrastructure’s investment manager, said: β€œWe believe this is a highly accretive growth opportunity in a segment of the digital infrastructure space that represents an exciting growth opportunity.

”We are particularly pleased to have partnered with such a reputable sponsor in Stonepeak and with the highly experienced company management team.”
