Rautenberg Moritz & Co. advises InfraRed Capital Partners on a majority investment in Deutsche GigaNetz GmbH.

Our team advised InfraRed Capital Partners and its London-based team on the initiation and execution of the acquisition of a majority stake in Deutsche GigaNetz GmbH, which was already closed in July 2020.

InfraRed Capital Partners is a global investment manager focused on infrastructure and real estate. It is part of the Canadian Sun Life Group and operates worldwide from offices in Sydney, London, Hong Kong, New York, Seoul and Mexico City.

Deutsche GigaNetz GmbH builds and operates fiber networks in Germany, providing sustainable broadband access in underserved areas with  a view to offering better Fibre to the Home (FTTH) services to more than 1 million retail, corporate, public and carrier customers across the country. For this endeavour, the company intends to invest up to EUR 3 billion in capital. It is based in Hamburg and was only founded in 2019.

The services provided by the team around our founding partner Arndt Rautenberg included the identification and approach of the target company, the preparation of an integrated Commercial and Technical Due Diligence as well as M&A process management including valuation and negotiation support up to the successful conclusion of the transaction.
