About

Sparring Capital, formerly known as Pragma Capital, is a France-based private equity firm specializing in lower mid-market buyouts. The firm focuses exclusively on majority investments in French SMEs with strong fundamentals, acquired at a discount to intrinsic value due to situational complexities. While fundamentally a generalist investor, Sparring Capital has built a track record in B-to-B services, leveraging opportunities across industries such as Infrastructure, Equipment, Healthcare, Logistics Services, Engineering, Consulting, and Manufacturing. In September 2021, Sparring Capital acquired Pechel Industries.
