Global law firm Goodwin advised Antin Infrastructure Partners, one of the world’s leading infrastructure investment firms, on Antin NextGen Infrastructure I, which held a final closing at target of €1.2 billion.
NextGen is Antin’s third investment strategy, complementing its existing Flagship and Mid Cap investment platforms. It will address the ever-growing need for capital to support the next generation of sustainable, scalable and connected infrastructure in Europe and North America.
The fund is backed by investors from Europe, North America, Asia and the Middle East and has already made five investments in two EV charging platforms (Powerdot and RAW Charging), two smart grid platforms (SNRG and PearlX) and a first-of-its-kind tyre recycling joint venture with Enviro and Michelin.
The Goodwin team was led by Arnaud David and included Ben Yeoh, Samiha Sumar, Hugo Panahpoursalehi, Rob Coleman-Lee and Jake Simons on fund formation aspects, Laura Charkin, Karen Turk, Sonita Bennitt, Katy Webb and Matt Rees on tax aspects, Brynn Peltz and Justin Kanter on U.S. regulatory aspects and Patrick S. Menasco and Bibek Pandey on ERISA aspects.
