Weinberg Capital Partners appoints Alix de Solms to lead and develop its Private Wealth business

Weinberg Capital Partners, a leading private equity firm in the small and mid-cap segment, announces the appointment of Alix de Solms to establish, structure and lead a dedicated Private Wealth business. This appointment marks a new stage in the firm’s development, leveraging its long-standing private markets expertise to serve private clients seeking demanding, long-term investment solutions.

A graduate in Law, Alix de Solms began her career at Turenne Groupe before joining Ardian, where she spent 14 years. She held key roles there, initially within the legal department—working on fund structuring and corporate matters—and later alongside the CEO as Chief of Staff. This career path has given her in-depth expertise in private equity, as well as a comprehensive understanding of the strategic, regulatory and operational dimensions of private markets.

Working alongside Philippe Klocanas, Alix de Solms will be responsible for designing and rolling out the Private Wealth offering, building on the standards of rigor and transparency that define Weinberg Capital Partners’ approach.

Founded in 2005, Weinberg Capital Partners has grown around a diversified investor base combining institutional investors, family offices and entrepreneurs. Historically, the firm has maintained close relationships with private clients, who have invested nearly €340 million across various vintages. The launch of a Private Wealth business therefore represents a natural evolution, fully aligned with the firm’s DNA.

As part of this strategy, Weinberg Capital Partners obtained approval from the French Financial Markets Authority in spring 2025, enabling it to market its funds to non-professional private investors. This authorization represents a key milestone, allowing the firm to deploy a dedicated offering for private clients.

The development of the Private Wealth business is driven by a strong conviction: private savings can play a decisive role in financing the real economy. Through its funds, Weinberg Capital Partners aims in particular to:

• support the creation, transformation and succession of businesses,
• back the development of impact-driven solutions,
• finance strategic companies within the Defence Industrial and Technological Base (DITB),
• foster innovation and job creation across regions.

The ambition is to offer a structured, clear and accessible range of investment solutions tailored to different investor profiles, addressing objectives of performance, diversification, impact or real estate exposure.
