What is Aravis?

Aravis is a venture capital firm based in Switzerland that specializes in the growth capital segment. Recognized as an influential entity in Swiss and European Private Equity markets, the firm boasts over a century of combined investment experience across a diverse set of industries.

Their flagship fund, Aravis Growth I, is designed to address the significant demand for growth capital in the region. The fund principally targets high-tech companies in the growth phase and aims to remedy the gap in the availability of venture capital and support for entrepreneurs in Switzerland. Notably, Switzerland has traditionally exhibited robust scientific output without a corresponding entrepreneurial ecosystem, partly due to the absence of substantial public funds for the private sector and lack of substantial venture capital programs.

Aravis Growth seeks to fill this void by bringing together investors — including pension funds, corporations, family offices, and sovereign wealth funds — and high-tech growth companies to drive expansion and innovation. The firm actively selects promising companies, leads investor consortiums, dispenses strategic advice, and leverages its network to enhance the growth trajectory of its portfolio companies.

Upon exit events such as an IPO or sale, the fund returns capital to its investors. The fund's strategy also entails balancing fluctuations in the economic cycle, integrating ESG aspects in line with the UN SDGs, and channeling investments towards sectors with high potential, thus enhancing the macroeconomic landscape.

Specializing in three primary sectors — biotechnology, creative & digital, and industrial high tech — Aravis Growth advocates an active management strategy aiming to deliver superior returns by concentrating on companies in the growth phase. The firm's approach includes a mix of direct and co-investments with a target fund size of 200-300 million, focusing primarily on Switzerland and Europe. Aravis asserts that this focus facilitates the internationalization of Swiss innovations, supports high-value job creation, and addresses the political discourse surrounding high-tech and digital investments in Switzerland.
