Engagements

We invest in and partner with businesses that are niche leaders with strong customer value proposition, benefit from robust underlying growth trends and have a purposeful businesses idea and a mission-driven approach. Most importantly they all have ambitious, outstanding and entrepreneurial teams striving to contribute to positive development in our communities by turning future challenges into business opportunities.

Since Seven District acquired the majority of Kvaser, they have really rolled up their sleeves and operationally supported the business during the succession from the CEO and Founder. The way that Seven District combines operational and strategic involvement based on their professional and personal experience truly adds value to the business.

Seven District has provided an invaluable amount of support – both strategically as well as with hands-on work during the establishment of Eyescanner. Their understanding of the life of a startup entrepreneur while also having an international investor perspective is unique.

Seven District has been part of the Easycom journey more or less since day one. The business has developed from a startup to now being in scale-up mode. The team and I have always felt that Seven District has fully understood the business, its challenges and opportunities and we have been able to leverage the knowledge and network of all Seven District partners when needed. This is a great partnership which will continue for a long time, of that I am sure.

Meet Charlotte and Louise – the latest additions to the Seven District Board

Seven District’s new Chair and new Board member both have distinguished careers. Still, they are both humble, and before accepting their new respective roles, asked themselves what they could bring to the table of Seven District. However, when it comes to both Charlotte Brogren, with more than two decades of experience in leading roles in both the public and private sector, and Louise Kores, with ten years’ of experience in the investment industry, their qualities and professional background leave no room for doubt.
