I'm sorry, but it looks like this may be out of my ability to answer... maybe some of the links below might help?
First, I hate the word prestige. I'm not clear what it means or why it might motivate you.
However, CapVest are a great quality mid-cap fund focused on Europe but I believe increasingly North America. Their current fund size is c. €3bn which was oversubscribed and much larger than their previous fund on the back of solid performance.
Mostly focused on Consumer / Food and Beverage, Healthcare, and Services. They really like the buy-and-build approach and do some transformational deals too (successfully - the Eight Fifty formation apparently was a very good example).
Culturally I've liked everyone I've come across there. There are certaintly strong personalities but smart people.
I have a lot of respect for CapVest based on their performance and people.
Well done on getting the offer!
It's non-convertible tho
