Managing Partner Reidun Tysseland takes part in Arendalsuka panel

𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐍𝐨𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐤 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐧 𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞?

That was the question for the panel our Managing Partner Reidun Tysseland joined last week at Arendalsuka.

The main takeaway is that investors increasingly view the Nordics as a single investment region, and appreciate its strong institutions and trust, innovation, global competitiveness and high-quality companies. These characteristics make the Nordics one of the most attractive regions for PE investing, but these numbers leave no room for complacency. In order to stay attractive, we need to continue to strengthen the entire capital ecosystem from venture, to growth to buy-out, and ultimately public markets.

Thank you to the Norsk venturekapitalforening NVCA and all fellow panelists for a thoughtful discussion on competitiveness, capital formation and the future of European innovation.
