Partners Group and Prosus execute strategic investment shifts

Partners Group has joined as a co-lead in a $180 million Series F funding round for Scanntech, an investment led by L Catterton. Alongside this growth move, the Swiss asset manager is restructuring its private credit strategy by launching a global multi-sector private credit income strategy via an evergreen vehicle. The firm is also working to refinance liabilities for several portfolio companies due in 2028 to limit the influence of external creditors.

In a separate move, Prosus Ventures, the venture capital arm of Prosus, co-led a $1.5 million pre-seed funding round with Accel for Cosmochute, an Indian space robotics startup. The funds are intended for the development of a lunar mobility platform. Prosus is also reportedly exploring a potential $40 million investment in the Indian fintech provider Kiwi. Additionally, reports indicate Prosus may sell its nearly 17 percent stake in Delivery Hero in connection with a potential acquisition by Uber.
