Under the investment agreement, APG and Aware Super commit to investing up to €200 million each in the company, which will enable Vivenio to acquire new assets to continue growing in the Build-to-Rent market and consolidate its position. The company has also approved a €100 million capital increase as part of the investment agreement.

The Cuatrecasas team handling this transaction was made up of lawyers José Luis Rodríguez, Javier Rovira and Sofía Lluch.
