Walker Morris / News & Insights / Private equity’s big opportunity to power manufacturing transformation
Did you know that nearly 50% of UK manufacturers need capital and skills support to deliver their transformation plans?
With both capital and capability, PE firms are well-positioned to support manufacturers as they navigate complex challenges.
“We spoke to manufacturers to find out, what’s holding them back? What support do they need most? And what role could a private equity partner play in helping them evolve?
Their answers were revealing. The mood is ambitious but cautious. The appetite for change is strong. But there are real capability gaps. While Private Equity (PE) is firmly on manufacturers’ radar, many are still searching for the ideal partnership fit.”
