Stonepeak, an alternative investment firm, agreed to invest €1bn ($1.05) in Inspired Education Group, a group of premium schools, with participation from Warburg Pincus. “In less than 9 years, we have become the leading global group of premium schools. We have been able to do so by being laser focused on delivering an outstanding holistic educational journey to our students around the world and getting over 90% of them into their first-choice university destinations. In addition to owning some of the leading schools globally, we have been rapidly growing our fully online school and expanding our technology initiatives in our classrooms. I am proud to have assembled some of the most prestigious blue-chip investors to support our expansion including GIC, TA Associates, Warburg Pincus, and the Oppenheimer and Mansour family offices. I would like to now welcome Stonepeak, who are exactly the type of long-term investor that shares our ambition, vision for growth and dedication to the pursuit of excellence in education, to our group," Nadim Nsouli, Inspired Founder, Chairman, and CEO.
