Copilot Capital, a private equity firm focused on pan-European software companies, has announced two senior promotions.

Copilot, described as a ‘copilot’ to the founders of European software and data businesses, said Dave Sun has been promoted to partner, while Zerxis Billimoria is now a director.

Both have been with Copilot – which launched a €200m fund – since the London firm’s founding.

Sun will expand his areas of focus to strategy and continue leading execution across the Nordics; Billimoria will step into a leadership role for deal execution and portfolio engagement across Europe.
