At the same time, we prioritize supporting and developing our senior personnel. Their knowledge and expertise form the foundation of our company's success, and therefore, we invest resources in offering them opportunities for further education, advancement, and professional development.

Industrial acquirer and developer of businesses

As a company that acquires other businesses with the aim of further developing them, we have a strategic approach to our acquisitions. We specifically look for companies that have a solid foundation and can benefit from our expertise, resources, and network to realize their full potential. It is also expected that the acquired company will bring valuable knowledge, technology, and expertise that contribute to innovation and development for the entire group and our core customers.

The company will become part of a larger context after the acquisition, opening up new opportunities for development and growth. The increased size and reach can provide access to resources, expertise, and markets that the acquired company may not have had access to previously. Synergies will also arise, where different sister companies can collaborate and exchange ideas to achieve greater efficiency and better results. This may include sharing best practices, joint access to more advanced IT systems, additional resources at management and board level, stronger financial management and investment frameworks, as well as support functions such as HR, accounting, ESG, and sustainability development. All of this can help strengthen the acquired company's operations, future growth potential, new product and service development, optimize supply chains, and take advantage of greater purchasing power.

We place high importance on continuing collaboration with the existing management and employees of the acquired company. We believe it is important to preserve the company's culture and history while introducing the company into a larger context that opens doors to a wider range of opportunities for future development. Our goal as corporate buyers is not only to create economic value but also to contribute to the development of the company as a whole. We believe in developing sustainable businesses that thrive in the long term through ongoing innovation and engagement.
