Company Description

A cornerstone to Volvo VC's investment strategy is the relevance of their investments to the Volvo Group. They are mandated to invest in new technologies or services with significant technical and commercial interests, to support business development based on the group's technology for business potential beyond Volvo, and to develop entrepreneurship and innovation within the group.Other investment criteria include identifying firms with value and growth potential, experienced management teams, shared vision of future business, investment syndication and minority stakes, and a customer base beyond the Volvo group. They seek compliance with Volvo's values, namely quality, safety and environmental care.Volvo VC is an engaged, active and long-term investment partner. In addition to capital, they work closely with the management team to further develop the firm. They provide access to the Volvo group's international network in addition to contacts with other sectors, academia, financial institutions and public authorities, in Sweden and worldwide.The firm takes particular care at the exit process. They utilize a structured method to evaluate the critical factors for a successful exit: firm valuation, timing and exposure to potential buyers.
