Bruno Schick, Co-Managing partner at Cinven, is joining Moonfare's Steffen Pauls for a wide-ranging interview. Reserve your seat now for Tuesday, 13 October at 9 am ET / 2 pm BST / 3 pm CEST.

Moonfare’s upcoming Deal Talk episode features one of private equity's most influential dealmakers.

Bruno Schick is a Co-Managing partner at Cinven, a European PE firm with a nearly 50-year history and more than €50 billion raised to date.

Our guest knows the industry inside out. He joined Cinven in 2003 and has since been a driving force in its growth, including through investments in market-leading companies such as STADA, Fressnapf and TK Elevator.

Here’s a preview of what's ahead when Bruno sits down with Steffen Pauls, Moonfare's Founder and Co-CEO:

• The story behind one of Europe's largest exits. Cinven was a lead investor in the carve-out of TK Elevator and recently announced the planned combination of the lift-maker with a strategic buyer for more than €29 billion, almost doubling the enterprise value in that time. How did the original transaction come together and what made it such a successful investment?
• The exit playbook behind an industry-beating track record. Cinven has distributed close to 30% of portfolio NAV in 2025 to investors, roughly double the industry average. What's driving the difference?
• What it takes to build a PE firm today. Private equity looks very different than it did when Bruno joined Cinven in 2003. If he were building a firm from scratch now, what would he do differently?

The conversation will also cover Cinven's relentless focus on founder-led deals, AI in private equity and other topics from Bruno's nearly two decades in the industry. Reserve your seat now.
