Harnessing the power of the digital wave

Across three continents, 3i’s partnerships with ambitious innovators are building dynamic businesses at the forefront of the digital revolution.

The internet and digital media has the ability to transform people’s lives and reinvent businesses – creating fresh ways to access knowledge and entertainment, buy and sell products, and form communities and connections.

At 3i, we are tremendously excited by the potential of these changes to deliver groundbreaking experiences to users while building fast-growing, profitable businesses that reshape the face of the industry and become global giants.

That is why we invest in ambitious entrepreneurs and management teams as they create, launch and grow products in all areas of the digital universe: from the infrastructure and devices that make the applications work, through to consumer-facing products and services, and businesses – such as advertising and payment solutions – that enable websites to make money.

As platforms and channels proliferate, it’s vital to have a partner with a deep understanding of fast-moving markets and a strong focus on the fundamentals: viable products, strong customer relationships and sustainable revenue streams.

We have a long track record of supporting digital media businesses at all stages of their evolution, with a wealth of experience in US and European markets, and rapidly-expanding capabilities in Asia.

Whether your company is nurturing the kernel of the next industry-shifting innovation, or migrating well-proven products to new business models and fresh markets, we share your enthusiasm for big ideas.
