We are on a mission to accelerate the most beautiful growth companies with world-class resources to do more good. Brilliant inventions and responsible businesses deserve to grow. The more these companies grow, the better the world becomes.
We are building a €300 million funding program to invest in Series B (and Series A occasionally) stage companies. We spend most of our time in the Nordics and Baltics, but we are happy to talk with all European companies. We love to lead rounds, as well as to syndicate; the only thing that really matters to us is that the round helps you the best.
During the last three decades, we’ve founded, managed and invested in +190 companies. We have had many successes but some of them have gone bankrupt: the aggregate exit value of our companies is several billion euros. We can’t wait to share our learnings with you!

We believe that doing good is good business. We want to generate great returns without compromising on sustainable value. To achieve this we look for the best fit of impact-minded entrepreneurs and enduring business models. We hope to walk the walk along with founders, from entry to exit and beyond.

After steering Lukiolaisten Kirjakauppa for a solid decade, Asikainen found himself yearning for a change of scenery. However, much like many other long-time entrepreneurs, navigating the transition to a new everyday life after the exit often proves to be easier said than done.
Lukiolaisten Kirjakauppa, a book agency that Riku Asikainen started as a high school hustle in 1992, quickly grew to a million-mark business. For Asikainen, the main challenge became to try to sustain the momentum and navigate through a decade-long legal battle.

In recent years, numerous well-funded initiatives have aimed to digitize the beauty appointment industry. Despite these efforts, booking beauty appointments remains largely analogue in many parts of Europe.

We are thrilled to invest in Planity alongside esteemed investors such as Infravia, Revaia, Credit Mutuel, Bpifrance, Eiffel Investment Group and Alven.
