    A transatlantic team from Eversheds Sutherland has advised Inflexion on its investment in ProLabs, an independent supplier of compatible optical transceivers.

    Inflexion, one of the UK's leading independent mid-market private equity firms, made the investment from its Enterprise Fund. The firm is backing the highly experienced management team to support an acceleration in international expansion and target selected acquisitions.

    The 11-strong Eversheds Sutherland team was led by private equity Partner, Richard Moulton, and Principal Associate Richard Kyle. It comprised: Partners Chris Hastings (banking, UK), and Wade Stribling (business practices, US), Counsel Sydney Simms Jr (business practices, US), Principal Associate Victoria Green (tax, UK), and Associates Hannah Kaye (corporate, UK), Alex McCarney (corporate, UK), Aaron Moody (business practices, US), Adam Smith (corporate, UK), and Laura Taylor (tax, US).

    Richard Moulton, Eversheds Sutherland (International), commented:

    “This is a key investment for our client, one that enhances our client’s position within key international markets. We are very pleased to have been able to support on this transaction.”

    Jonathan Ma, Inflexion, commented:

    “It was great to work with the Eversheds Sutherland team. Their advice was invaluable and the seamless effort of the combined team across the UK and the US to get the deal over the line really was impressive. We’re delighted with the outcome and look forward to working closely with ProLabs.”
