Investing in Growth
Finnish Industry Investment invests
in Finnish companies, both directly and through private equity funds.
We invest in rapid growth, internationalisation, spin-offs, major
industrial investments, as well as sectoral, corporate and ownership
restructurings.
We are part of the Finnish national innovation system,
which seeks to stimulate Finnish industry and promote the development
and deployment of new technology, while creating new growth companies,
jobs and wellbeing. We contribute to the innovation system services by
providing venture capital and private equity financing to companies. The
key principle is to work hand-in-hand with private investors from
Finland and abroad, to share risks while boosting the availability of
funding, investment expertise and networks.
Since 1995, we have made investments totalling EUR one billion.
The portfolio currently comprises altogether 515 companies. Continuous
and growing investment activity has been secured by internal cash-flow
financing and governmental equity injections. Finnish Industry
Investment’s operations are governed by law and must be profitable in
the long-term.
