Our approach

Ownership, not a transaction.

I.

Founders stay in the room

We take minority and majority positions, but always keep the people who built the company at the centre of decisions.

II.

Operators, not just analysts

Half of our team has run a P&L. They work inside portfolio companies on pricing, hiring and international expansion.

III.

Ten-year horizons

Our evergreen structure lets us hold great businesses for as long as they keep compounding.

Founder perspective
“They asked about our customers before they asked about our margins. Seven years later, we are four times the size and still run the company ourselves.”
Ingrid Solberg — CEO, Halvard Systems
