Ardian Infrastructure: $20bn raised for essential European assets

Ardian has raised $20 billion for its latest flagship infrastructure platform, marking a major milestone in the infrastructure investment landscape. The platform is composed of Ardian Infrastructure Fund VI (AIF VI), and co-investments alongside the fund.

Raised in just 26 months, significantly faster than the market average and representing a 90% increase in size compared to its predecessor (AIF V), this success reflects the strength and consistency of Ardian’s infrastructure strategy, as well as the deep trust placed in it by our global investors. Notably, the number of North American investors more than doubled, alongside growing participation from new investors across Asia and Australia.

In this video, Mathias Burghardt, Executive Vice-President, CEO of Ardian France and Head of Infrastructure, and Jan Philip Schmitz, Executive Vice-President and Head of Investor Relations at Ardian, discuss the key factors behind this landmark raise: an industrial approach driven by strong and resilient performance, the role of data and AI in enhancing operational efficiency and sustainability, and how the investor base has evolved and diversified across geographies and profiles.

This new chapter is not only about scale, but also about access. Ardian is now extending the reach of its infrastructure strategy through an evergreen solution designed to bring these institutional opportunities closer to private investors.
