Enterprise IT is moving fast. AI adoption, governance, data architecture and cyber resilience are no longer separate workstreams—they’re the work.
We recently brought together 14 CIOs from our portfolio companies in Japan to share challenges, initiatives and practical lessons, including insights from Mr. Isomura, CIO of York Holdings.
The conversation reinforced a consistent theme: the companies leading in this area treat it as business transformation, not a technology problem.
The companies that move fastest will set the pace for their sectors.

We recently welcomed 111 new investment professionals from across Bain Capital to Boston for our Global Investment Professional Orientation.
Reflecting our apprenticeship culture, the program brings together new colleagues and experienced leaders to explore our history, values and investment philosophy—and build relationships that will shape their careers for years to come.
Service has been core to our firm since its founding more than 40 years ago. As part of the orientation, the group assembled children’s bicycles for CambridgeBikeGiveBack, a local nonprofit supporting families in need.
We’re grateful for the time with this group as they begin their Bain Capital journey and look forward to seeing these relationships and experiences grow across the firm.

For nearly 40 years, we’ve partnered with founders and management teams around the world to build category-leading companies.
The strongest partnerships are grounded in a shared vision—and a willingness to roll up our sleeves together, bringing strategic and operational depth to every stage of the journey.
In today’s environment, creating lasting value requires a deliberate approach to building, transforming, and ultimately exiting great businesses.
We believe that approach shows up in results. We recently closed our 14th flagship fund and latest Asia Private Equity fund, while the past three years have delivered three of our strongest distribution years on record.
We’re proud to be a trusted partner to growing businesses worldwide—and honored to be recognized again by GrowthCap as a Top Private Equity Firm.

Europe’s infrastructure buildout is creating opportunities beyond the assets themselves — across the companies that build, upgrade, and maintain them.
Our Europe industrials strategy focuses on the operators and service providers behind the trend: grid investment, data center construction, transport upgrades, and higher European defense spending.
Halvor Meyer Horten spoke with With Intelligence about how this plays out, from Nordic grid investment to NATO-linked infrastructure spending.
Eleda is one example — working across power infrastructure, roads, railways, and data center groundworks.

Our Tech Opportunities team is excited to lead a growth investment in RQD*, supporting the company as it expands its technology, product capabilities, and global reach — and enables more scalable access to U.S. markets across traditional and digital assets.

Recently, more than thirty-five Bain Capital colleagues, along with family and friends, joined thousands of cyclists from across the Commonwealth for the annual @PanMass Challenge (PMC) in support of @DanaFarber Cancer Institute.
Team Bain Capital has raised more than $2.4 million so far this year, bringing our total contribution to the PMC to more than $42 million since 1999. 100% of every rider-raised dollar goes directly to Dana-Farber.
Congratulations to all of this year's riders, and thank you for your unending support of cancer research and patient care.

Recently, David Gross spoke with Sarah Kessler for @nytimes DealBook’s “Talking A.I.” series about what it takes for companies to move from AI experimentation to meaningful integration.
One of the central challenges for businesses today? How to turn powerful technology into operating change. AI’s opportunity is not limited to making existing work more efficient. It can also help companies redesign workflows, expand what is economically possible, and rethink how the enterprise operates at scale.
Through our founding partnership with the @OpenAI Deployment Company, we are seeing this work firsthand. Translating AI into meaningful business outcomes requires focus, experimentation, and deep engagement with how work actually gets done.

50 of our colleagues recently joined hundreds of corporate volunteers for @c2cboston’s signature Backpack-A-Thon. Volunteers filled 50,000 backpacks with essential school supplies for children experiencing homelessness or financial hardship across Massachusetts.
The Backpack-A-Thon helps ensure that children have the essentials they need to begin the school year feeling prepared and confident. It is always a highlight of our year and an opportunity to see Boston’s corporate community come together for meaningful, hands-on impact. Since its founding in 2002, @c2cboston has worked to provide children with the essential items they need to thrive at home, at school, and at play.
Bain Capital is proud to support that mission through an annual Bain Capital Children’s Charity grant, volunteerism, and board service at the national, local, and young professional levels.

Spain's flex living sector continues outrunning its supply. Structural undersupply, urbanization and evolving housing preferences drive demand for professionally managed, flexible accommodation in the country's gateway cities.
We've exited a 977-unit purpose-built flex living asset in Carabanchel, Madrid, developed in joint venture with Momentum REIM and Episode. The property, opened in 2025, holds BREEAM Outstanding certification and recently won the ASPRIMA-SIMA Award for Best Flex Living Initiative. Episode will continue to manage the asset going forward.
The exit follows the completion of the joint venture's first portfolio, roughly 2,800 units, with a second portfolio of more than 2,300 units already underway.
It's a platform built to be repeated, not a one-off transaction.
We continue to build our Living strategy across Europe's gateway cities, where the fundamentals remain some of the strongest in real estate.

Companies regularly face capital decisions that do not fit cleanly into a single category. A founder may need growth capital without selling control. A company may need a tailored solution for a carve-out, acquisition, or strategic transition. A hard asset platform may need financing designed around durable cash flows found in esoteric collateral or capex-heavy sectors.
Hybrid capital is designed for these situations. We believe it can provide companies, owners, corporates, and asset holders with capital that draws on the strengths of both debt and equity while offering additional flexibility.
We believe the need for this approach persists across cycles. Executing it well requires more than capital. It depends on structuring discipline, operating partnership, sector knowledge, and a broad platform that can identify opportunities across corporate and asset-backed situations while remaining selective.
Recently, our Special Situations team published a guide to hybrid capital that covers what this capital is, why the need persists, and what it takes to execute well.

Colleagues from our Credit and Special Situations teams recently joined @CityYearBoston at the Mary Lyon School in Brighton for our annual day of service. More than 200 volunteers contributed over 600 hours preparing the campus for the new school year.
They painted murals and schoolyard graphics, built outdoor benches and a mud kitchen, refreshed the cafeteria, and assembled supply kits for teachers and students.
Bain Capital’s partnership with @CityYear spans nearly four decades.
We and our colleagues have contributed more than $120 million, thousands of volunteer hours, and ongoing support as advisors and board members to help advance the organization’s mission and expand its impact.
We are grateful for the opportunity to continue that partnership and to support the community here in Boston.

Recently, we announced a $1.5 billion investment alongside Tillman Global Holdings in Eaton Fiber to support the expansion of @Verizon fiber broadband across the United States. The investment will fund Eaton Fiber’s next phase of network growth and help bring Verizon fiber broadband to more than one million locations outside Verizon's current footprint.
The partnership brings together Verizon as a committed commercial anchor, Eaton Fiber as the network builder and operator, and Tillman’s experience developing essential infrastructure platforms.
The result is a wholesale model to give Verizon a capital-efficient path into new markets, provide Eaton Fiber with a fully funded platform for growth, and expand access to essential connectivity across more communities.

We recently welcomed Sue Bird for a conversation on leadership, authenticity, resilience, and high performance as part of our Speaker Series. Over two decades as one of basketball’s most accomplished point guards, and now through her work in ownership, media, and USA Women’s Basketball, Sue has gained a unique understanding of what enables teams to thrive.
Her reflections centered on the trust, relationships, and diverse perspectives that help teams perform at their best. Those themes resonated deeply with how we think about culture at Bain Capital.
Since our founding, we have believed that an array of backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and opinions strengthens teams and leads to better outcomes. Our commitment to apprenticeship, mentorship, and creating an environment where people can grow and contribute meaningfully is based in that belief.

Consumer health is built on trust, not just scale.
Vitabiotics has spent 55 years earning both: the UK's No.1 vitamin company, trusted by healthcare professionals and consumers, with strong positions across India, the Middle East, Africa and China.
In July, we announced our agreement to acquire @vitabiotics because category leadership, clinical credibility, and regional distribution expertise create durable advantages. Our focus now is building on that foundation and investing for long-term growth.

David Gross joined Jonathan Guilford on the @Breakingviews’ podcast, The Big View, for a conversation on private markets, global investing, and what it takes to perform across cycles.
A central theme was the continued long-term growth of private markets, and the discipline required to turn that growth into durable performance. David spoke about the tradeoffs that can come with scale, and why sourcing advantage, value creation, and investment selectivity matter in today’s environment.
The long-term approach also informs where we see opportunity globally. Across Europe and Asia, more than two decades of local investment have shaped our platform and perspective, particularly in markets like Japan, Korea, and India, where generational ownership transitions are creating new opportunities for partnership.

European manufacturers continue to manage direct procurement and supply chain operations across fragmented tools and manual processes. @SupplyOn has solved this for some, but significant opportunities remain.
Over the last 25 years, the company has built a network connecting 220 manufacturers with 140K+ suppliers across automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing sectors. Across Europe, manufacturers increasingly expect this level of connectivity and visibility amidst growing supply chain complexity.
We've acquired SupplyOn to accelerate customer adoption in core and adjacent sectors, expand the product roadmap, and support sustainable, profitable growth.

On a recent episode of Middle Market Musings, @jp_connaughton joined Andy Greenberg of Greenberg Variations Capital and Charles K Gifford, Jr. of New Heritage Capital for a wide-ranging conversation on his career, Bain Capital’s evolution, and lessons for those early in their investing careers. The conversation touched on a question that has shaped our firm over time: why we have remained a private partnership.
For us, the private partnership structure is fundamental to how we operate. It keeps us closely aligned with our investors, management teams, and each other, while allowing us to take a long-term view on investing and the evolution of our business.
We have built deep vertical expertise, stayed tightly integrated across the firm, and invested in relationships that have developed over decades. That approach supports a “win-win” mentality across our platform and reinforces how we seek to create value over time.
