Formed in 2006, IP Directions has historically developed a broad range of technical services for business landline telephone operators and has reproduced its know-how for mobiles.  

Capitalizing on the modularity of its offer and the quality of its services (often complex from a technical point of view), IP Directions is the undisputed partner of big names in the French and foreign business telephony sector.

Context of the deal

The business telephony operator has brought two directors onto the board through a sponsorless deal mezzanine-financed by Axio Capital. 

The deal thus recasts the equity structure and is a real boost for the young guard while also capitalizing on a value-creating leverage effect. 

Axio Capital’s investment opportunity is underpinned both by the evolving landline telephony market and its regulations but also by the positive impact of the involvement of these new shareholder managers.
