In this newly created role, Remi becomes part of Keensight’s Management Committee, which is responsible for managing the firm. The other members are Jean Michel Beghin, Pierre Remy and Philippe Crochet, Managing Partners; Arnaud Cohen, Partner and COO; and Partners Amit Karna and Stanislas de Tinguy. In this role, Remi will lead on progressing strategic, long-term priorities to support the firm’s development. He will help run the firm by taking on internal initiatives, turning ideas and strategic discussions into clear plans and supporting overall execution. This new position is designed to give the firm more leverage to scale, improve how it operates and move at pace.

This internal promotion is a further step in the institutionalization of Keensight, following the build-out of the firm’s IR, HR and Capital Markets teams earlier this year. It also reflects Keensight’s continued commitment to developing its senior talent and strengthening its strategic leadership as the firm expands across Europe.

The Keensight team now encompasses over 125 professionals, up from 55 people five years ago. The company operates from two principal offices: Paris, where nearly 70 people are based; and London, which has scaled quickly to around 50 people. It also has offices in Singapore and Boston to support portfolio operations.

Jean-Michel Beghin, Managing Partner at Keensight Capital, said: “This appointment reflects the scale of Keensight’s growth ambitions and will strengthen our ability to execute on our plans. Remi has played an instrumental role in building our Performance team and shaping how we drive value creation. His appointment to this new role as Head of Corporate Development will help ensure we keep pace with our expansion and sustain the agility that has always defined Keensight.”

Remi Louvel, Partner and Head of Corporate Development, added: “After close to a decade building the Performance team, I’m proud and happy to take on this new challenge at such a pivotal time for the firm. This role is about ensuring we continue to scale effectively, turning strategic ideas into action, strengthening internal collaboration and supporting our next phase of development.”

Since joining the firm, Remi has played a key role in building the Keensight Performance team and bringing best practices across the portfolio particularly in commercial strategy, pricing, and internationalization. In this new capacity, his leadership will be pivotal as Keensight executes its next chapter of growth and innovation.
