Livingbridge is a mid-market private equity firm launched in 1995.[1]

Livingbridge was known until November 2014 as Isis Equity Partners, but rebranded as it was "no longer prepared to share [its name] with a terrorist organisation".[2][3][4]

Since 1995 it has invested in over 100 UK businesses.[5]

In 2016 it raised £660m in its eighth fundraise, its largest to date. In April 2016 Livingbridge announced the sale of Frank Recruitment Group to TPG Capital.[6]
