A consortium of financial investors led by EMZ Partners, alongside Bpifrance and Amundi, has acquired a stake in Nexteam Group, a European leader in the supply of critical components for the Aerospace & Defense sector, as part of a broader capital restructuring. The transaction saw the exit of existing shareholder Tikehau Capital and a strengthening of the management stake, marking a new chapter in the company's ownership structure.

Headquartered in Marmande, France, Nexteam is a specialist manufacturer of complex aerostructure and engine components, serving major aerospace primes and Tier 1 suppliers. The company operates across a network of industrial sites in France and offers deep engineering expertise across machining, sheet metal forming, and surface treatment for both civil and defence applications.

The new investor consortium brings together long-term patient capital and strategic support to accompany Nexteam through its next phase of industrial development, underpinned by strong structural tailwinds in global Aerospace & Defense demand.
