Dubai, UAE: StonePine ACE Partners – a joint venture between StonePine Capital Partners and ACE & Company SA – today announced its investment alongside CI Capital Holding for Financial Investment  (“CI Capital”) in Taaleem Management Services Company SAE (“Taaleem”) a leading higher education platform in Egypt which controls and operates Nahda University in Beni Suef (NUB), for a total consideration of EGP 1.2bn (c. US$73m).
 
StonePine ACE Partners together with CI Capital and a group of co-investors acquired the platform from Thebes Education Management Holdings B.V., an RMBV managed co-investment vehicle funded by several Development Finance Institutions and global institutional investors.
 
StonePine ACE Partners Limited is a joint venture between StonePine Capital Partners, a Dubai-based asset manager with primary focus on private equity investments, and ACE & Company SA, a Geneva-based and FINMA regulated global private equity group. Both are leading private equity companies with collective AUMs close to USD1bn.
 
Commenting on the deal, Youssef Haidar, Founder and CEO of StonePine Capital Partners and the head of the StonePine ACE Fund said: “We are incredibly proud of closing our second deal out of our StonePine ACE Fund this year. This deal represents a continuation of our investment strategy of teaming up with reputable investment companies regionally to target attractive assets in our verticals of interest. We believe in the promise the Egyptian market represents and in higher education as a sector with excellent upside appeal. We believe that our partnership with CI Capital to invest in NUB will yield excellent returns to our investor base."

Haidar will represent the StonePine ACE Fund on the board of NUB.
 
Sherif Elhalwagy, Managing Director at ACE & Company said: “We are very proud to be successfully executing our first investment in the promising Egyptian education sector alongside CI Capital. StonePine ACE will be augmenting CI Capital and NUB’s management team in enhancing its offering to students to enable them to continuously achieve gainful employment upon graduation. We are proud of this mission and the investment we have made to support it."

Taaleem is a leading higher education platform that controls and operates NUB, the largest private university in Upper Egypt with more than 5,600 enrolled students; it was born on the back of extensive Egyptian government reforms to the education sector that have encouraged private sector investment over the past several years.
 
The university’s location in Beni Suef enables students from this highly populous and under served region to gain access to high quality education and state-of-the-art teaching methods.
 
In addition to its existing six faculties, NUB recently launched the Faculty of Medicine for the upcoming academic year 2019/20, in partnership with the Medical University of Vienna International, one of the world’s largest and most renowned medical universities with roots dating back more than 750 years. NUB’s Faculty of Medicine is Upper Egypt’s only private medical faculty and one of only a handful nationwide. 
 
Earlier this year StonePine ACE Partners lead a US$30 million series A investment in AWOK.com to help boost growth in the Dubai e-commerce platform as it expands internationally. The co-investor group included Al Faisaliah Ventures, the newly created Corporate Ventures Capital arm of Al Faisaliah Group, and globally renowned investment group Endeavor Catalyst.
