We are glad to start our third newsletter by welcoming the new Partners at BaltCap – Sarunas Alekna and Eneken Napa! Promoting Partners from within the team is a special occasion. Team succession, the strong commitment of team members to our values and the growth of the business is a sign of unity. We are extremely proud of our new Partners and our whole team of 38 investment professionals across the six European capitals.
We are also proud that November 2021 marks the signing of the largest BaltCap deal ever. The perseverance of Sarunas Stepukonis and Simonas Gustainis in paving the way to this complex PPP project that will revitalize the Lithuanian National stadium has been truly remarkable.
The bigger and smaller milestones covered in the current newsletter stem from long-term dedication and hard work. We recognise our investors and partners for trusting us when building up the BaltCap we know today – the business we love!
