Simon Orange joins Prefequity as Senior Adviser to bolster Northern network
Prefequity, a regional investor in lower mid-market companies across the UK, is delighted to announce the appointment of Simon Orange as Senior Adviser.
Simon is a well-known Manchester-based entrepreneur and co-owner of Sale Sharks. Since founding CorpAcq in 2006, Simon has been a pivotal figure in the Manchester investment arena and recently led CorpAcq’s investment from TDR Capital.
Prefequity first backed CorpAcq in 2013 and has since supported several follow-on investments alongside Simon’s team. In his role as Senior Adviser, he will help Prefequity deepen its presence across the North of England, with a particular focus on the Manchester region.
“We’ve long admired Simon’s achievements at CorpAcq. His insights and contacts will be invaluable as we pursue further opportunities across the North West.”
“I’ve enjoyed a strong partnership with Theo and the Prefequity team over the years. Their structured capital solutions offer UK SMEs a unique path to growth, and I’m excited to support their second fund’s deployment.”
