MeeMaken is pleased to inform you of the press release by TowerBrook Capital Partners.
The shareholders of LiftWerx have decided to team up with a new partner to accelerate the growth of LiftWerx North America. TowerBrook, an investment management firm headquartered in New York and London, that invests in services that are enabling the energy transition.
LiftWerx North America, headquartered in Cambridge, Ontario Canada, started in 2016 and is a fast-growing company specialized in turnkey services for major corrective repairs for onshore wind turbines, using crane-less technology.
As an active investment company, with a portfolio of innovative companies, MeeMaken aims to create an impact on accelerating the energy transition. Roderik van Seumeren, Managing Partner MeeMaken: “We believe that TowerBrook Capital Partners is the right partner to contribute to the further growth of the LiftWerx activities in the onshore wind industry. This strategic move will provide financial strength to continue to invest in companies that can make a positive impact on the ESG goals”.
MeeMaken will remain part of the future journey of this great company as a minority shareholder. Next to that, choosing Towerbrook as a partner will also have a positive impact on the current portfolio companies of MeeMaken.
KenzFigee, as crane manufacturer, will remain the supplier of the LiftWerx up-tower cranes. Maikel Takken, CEO KenzFigee: “We are proud that we, as KenzFigee, have been actively involved as a company from the very beginning of LiftWerx North America. We look forward to continuing this strategic collaboration in the future and to grow together with the success of LiftWerx.”
Eager.one as a specialist engineering company, and BeOne Development as eLearning company, will also continue to support the growth of LiftWerx.
LiftWerx Europe, with a focus on the global offshore market and headquartered in The Hague, the Netherlands, is not included in the TowerBrook deal. LiftWerx Europe will be renamed and rebranded in the coming weeks. Make sure to follow us to stay updated.
