The sectors of Sport, Luxury, Art, and Music (SLAM) share the common trait of offering inspiring personal and collective experiences and are increasingly interconnected (according to the analysis of the Management Company).

Europe, and France in particular, are home to numerous SLAM companies that benefit from iconic brands and specific expertise, but which remain, in our estimation, underexploited.

These companies have the opportunity to implement a growth strategy in terms of geographical and operational reach, both organically and through acquisitions. However, they need both capital and strategic support.

The investment strategy of the FCPR SLAM FUND consists of investing in small and medium-sized enterprises active in the sports industry and adjacent verticals such as luxury, art, and music.

The fund will primarily invest in unlisted shares and take majority or minority stakes in small and medium-sized enterprises that, according to our analysis, show strong growth potential

The geographical investment area will mainly be France and Europe, but the fund does not exclude the possibility of investing internationally, particularly in the United States and Asia, which may generate currency risk

The fund aims to make more than 10 investments to diversify growth potential and limit risks

The originality of the SLAM Fund's investment strategy: its unique positioning in the following four sectors: Sport, Luxury, Art, and Music.

We believe that the growing interconnection of these sectors will bring new opportunities for the portfolio companies and their leaders.The Fund will benefit from TRAIL's ecosystem composed of seasoned investment professionals in the field of private equity and SLAM sectors, high-level athletes, and experienced entrepreneurs in these domains.The management team will focus on companies in the growth phase (Growth / Development Capital) or maturity phase (LBO / Buyout), rather than pursuing a venture capital strategy
