Teknoinvest Management has the pleasure of announcing the first closing of its new fund - Teknoinvest VIII, with a committed capital of € 60 million.
As Teknoinvest`s earlier funds, the fund will invest primarily into early stage Information Technology, Communications and Life Sciences companies, located primarily in the Nordic Countries and the United States.
Teknoinvest believes the timing of Teknoinvest VIII is right, since investments will be made in the lower part of the industry`s cycle with favourable terms and valuations. "When we exit the investee companies in 4-6 years time, we expect to be in the upper part of the cycle", Bjørn Bjorå said.
