Triton has admitted making “mistakes” as it faces a backlash following revelations that its founder played spin the bottle shirtless at a corporate party.

A Handelsblatt article, published on 21 November, has alleged that Triton’s management culture is “characterised by alcohol and chauvinism”, citing conversations with more than a dozen women and men who work or have worked for the firm.
