Gymshark raises capital from General Atlantic

Investor(s)

General Atlantic

General Atlantic is a global growth equity investor that invests in fast-growing companies with proven business models and strong revenue growth. We focus on four sectors: consumer, financial services, healthcare and technology, where we have deep expertise and a strong track record of helping companies manage growth by seizing new opportunities, mitigating risks, and preparing to scale their business models for global growth. We seek to build enduring partnerships with our portfolio companies, reinforced by our stable, flexible capital program. To create long-term value that is essential to growth investing, we aim to be an active lead investor with significant minority ownership, working with management teams to meaningfully change outcomes. Unlike traditional private equity funds, General Atlantic's unique structure provides a more stable capital base that enables us to invest patiently and independent of fundraising cycles. Our capital base is largely composed of entrepreneurial and philanthropic families, reinforcing our long-term approach. General Atlantic was founded in 1980 in the United States, originally as a family office of Charles Feeney. Since then, we have expanded into a global fund with multiple Limited Partners and overseas offices.
