In September, PGPE Ltd invested EUR 6.7 million, of which EUR 5.5 million was
in FairJourney Biologics, a leading European antibody discovery Contract
Research Organization (CRO) based in Porto, Portugal. Founded in 2012,
FairJourney provides services for the discovery, engineering, production, and
characterization of antibodies. FairJourney has worked with over 250 clients
across the globe to develop more than 4,000 unique screening libraries for
identifying antibodies. The company's partnerships with its customers have
yielded 14 therapies that are currently in active clinical development to
treat unmet patient needs across oncology, immunology, and cardiovascular
disease. FairJourney is set to benefit from structural market tailwinds,
including increased R&D spend, outsourcing trends, and a favorable
regulatory landscape. Partners Group will work with management on a value
creation plan for FairJourney that will expand its technology and capabilities
through organic and inorganic investment to unlock faster, more effective drug
development for its partners.
PGPE Ltd received distributions totaling EUR 6.3 million, with EUR 6.0 million
coming from the sale of a portion of its stake in Galderma, a pure-play
dermatology category leader. The shares were sold to L'Oréal, via an
off-market block trade that saw the French beauty and cosmetics group invest
for a 10% stake in Galderma. The two companies have also agreed on a
scientific partnership to develop advanced, future-proof technologies with
direct applications in the field of dermatology.
