GAPAVE, the association which owns Apave Group (Apave), a specialist in the field of technical, environmental, human and digital risk management, is in exclusive negotiations with PAI Partners, a European private equity firm, whereby PAI would become a shareholder of Apave alongside GAPAVE.
Following the transaction, GAPAVE would remain the Group’s largest shareholder.
For 150 years, Apave has evolved to meet major technological changes and advancements head-on, developing expertise in guaranteeing the safety of people, of goods, of production assets and of the environment.
