Singulier is proud to partner with Maddyness on the launch of the MAD20, the first initiative dedicated to recognising the Operating Partners driving operational transformation across the private equity ecosystem in France. 

As market conditions become more demanding with rising rates and compressed margins, performance funds are relying less on financial engineering and more on operational value creation. Operating Partners have become central to that shift, bridging strategy and execution to deliver sustainable results. 

About the Initiative 

The MAD20 Operating Partners highlights 20 experts selected for their strategic and executional influence within the European investment landscape. Each of them plays a decisive role in translating investment theses into tangible outcomes, from accelerating growth to embedding ESG, data, and technology capabilities at scale. 

This collaboration reflects a shared conviction between Maddyness and Singulier: that the next era of private equity success will be defined by those who can turn ambition into operational discipline.
