Their portfolio includes high-growth ventures, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and larger corporations, with a specific interest in real estate management and investment opportunities.

These include smart cities, services, leisure, mobility, real estate, fintech, various investment activities, distribution, industry, luxury, consumer goods, business services, consumer and retail brands, and healthcare. Within consumer brands, their focus is on businesses in the United States and Europe spanning beauty, personal and household care, juvenile products, apparel, wellness, accessories, home goods, jewelry, leisure, health, fitness, beverages, and food. A key criterion for investment is a differentiated business model offering substantial global growth potential. Eurazeo proactively sources opportunities, prioritizing those in sectors undergoing digital transformation and shaped by evolving lifestyle and consumption patterns, such as mobility, e-commerce, and collaborative economic models. In its real estate ventures, the firm targets large properties ripe for restructuring, various residential, commercial, and office development projects, and enterprises holding significant real estate assets across Western Europe.
