Our investment philosophy
Our investment philosophy is based on a conviction that money should be put to work and create new value. It's a philosophy we've worked with for over 60 years.
We have a humanistic view of entrepreneurship where our employees are always at the center. We want to build trusting relationships with our portfolio companies and employees - where trust and entrepreneurship are keywords for success. Our investments should contribute to long-term social impact, and we primarily want to grow by investing in innovation- and technology-driven companies - where our experience and expertise can create the greatest value.
For us, an investment should feel right in the gut while there should be good opportunities for the company to develop with Sandberg Development as owner. We invest in companies that are in different phases, but the development potential needs to match our competence profile for us to be able to take an active ownership role. We believe in knowledge transfer, engagement, and presence - it's the foundation for us to be the best possible partner to our portfolio companies.
Investment company in Malmö with local base and global perspective
Based in southern Sweden, Sandberg Development builds strong, local relationships and develops tomorrow's technologies with a global perspective. Our focus on developing Swedish innovations as a springboard for successful products and companies forms the foundation of our Group.
Proximity and regular contact are important parts of building trust. In our own premises, we offer a creative environment where knowledge and experience are shared across company boundaries. We continuously work to analyze and evaluate new investment and acquisition opportunities. We are a small organization with short decision paths that make us fast and flexible.
Today our companies develop and sell products that are available worldwide – with offices in Washington, Marseille, and Singapore. With our experience, network, and understanding of both industrial logic and cultural differences, we create the right conditions for both local establishment and successful globalization of companies.
