Knight Corporate Finance has advised River Capital on its investment in Infinium Group, a leading provider of digital infrastructure services. The funding, which combines equity from River Capital’s North West Equity Fund and mezzanine finance from its Mezzanine Fund, will enable Infinium to scale its next-generation EDGE platform and accelerate nationwide growth.
Knight also supported Infinium’s management team throughout the process, providing strategic guidance and delivering commercial due diligence to facilitate the investment.
Founded in 2002 by CEO Peter Miles and CTO Dan Massey, Infinium designs, installs, and operates complex Wi-Fi networks for the UK’s holiday park and leisure sector, serving many of the country’s leading operators. With over two decades of experience, the company has become a trusted partner in a market where reliable internet connectivity is now considered an essential utility for guests.
The investment will enable the national roll-out of Infinium’s EDGE solution, which represents a significant evolution of the company’s business model. Alongside its traditional installation-led approach, EDGE provides a fully managed, direct-to-van Wi-Fi service operated by Infinium, giving park operators a cost-effective rental solution that removes upfront capital expenditure and reduces operational complexity.
The UK holiday park market includes over 5,000 parks and approximately 438,000 pitches, presenting significant headroom for expansion.
As part of the transaction, Andrew Peters, former CEO of Telefónica UK, has joined Infinium’s board as Chair, alongside Mark Evans, Group Finance Director at Bourne Leisure and Warner Hotels, who joins to strengthen financial governance and oversight.
