Gimv announces a strategic investment in Curana, a developer of high-end bicycle parts.
The investment in Curana underlines Gimv's commitment to the sustainable mobility and lifestyle consumer products sector and its confidence in Curana's potential for further success.
Curana, based in Ardooie, Belgium, is known for its design and innovation capabilities, providing tailor-made solutions for leading bicycle manufacturers.
Together with Gimv, Curana wants to further professionalize its organization and accelerate its international growth strategy, building on its reputation as a go-to partner for leading bicycle manufacturers.
This investment comes at a crucial time for Curana, after the premature death of owner Dirk Vens during the investment process. Gimv wants to honor Dirk's legacy by continuing to build on the solid foundation he has laid. Gimv is investing together with Jean-Charles Malherbe, the newly appointed buy-in CEO, and management to drive Curana's next phase of growth.
Financial details of the transaction are not disclosed.
