eEquity

eEquity is a prominent growth equity investor based in Stockholm, Sweden, specializing in digital business models across the Nordic and Northern European regions. Founded with a clear mandate to support companies with proven concepts and substantial scaling potential, eEquity targets sectors such as e-commerce, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), online marketplaces, and other digital services. Their investment philosophy centers on providing significant growth capital to accelerate market expansion, product development, and operational efficiencies for their portfolio companies.

The firm typically invests in companies that have already achieved considerable traction and are poised for their next phase of rapid growth. Unlike early-stage venture capital firms, eEquity focuses on later-stage growth equity rounds, often taking significant minority or majority stakes. Their typical first cheque size ranges from EUR 10 million to EUR 40 million, translating approximately to USD 10.8 million to USD 43.2 million based on recent exchange rates. This substantial capital injection is complemented by active ownership, where eEquity leverages its deep industry expertise and extensive network to provide strategic guidance and operational support.

eEquity's capacity to deploy significant capital is underscored by its latest fund, eEquity VI, which successfully closed at EUR 320 million. This substantial fund size enables them to participate in larger growth rounds and support their portfolio companies through multiple funding stages as they scale. Beyond capital, eEquity emphasizes value creation through strategic partnerships, talent acquisition, and international expansion support. They aim to be a hands-on partner, helping entrepreneurs navigate the complexities of scaling a digital business in competitive markets. Their focus on digital-first companies allows them to apply specialized knowledge and best practices gleaned from a diverse portfolio of successful online ventures.
