Strategy and targets

Springvest brings together growth investors and growth-stage companies

We make it easier to invest in promising unlisted companies, help technology companies grow and succeed, and strengthen Finnish ownership in growth-stage companies. In line with our strategy, we arrange funding rounds for carefully selected portfolio companies. 

Rather than focusing on the volume of funding rounds, we prioritise the quality of our portfolio companies, which is why we arrange approximately 8–10 funding rounds per year. We focus on public share issues of €5–12 million as well as share issues targeted at professional investors of up to €50 million.

Target 2035: €1 billion in arranged growth financing

We believe that by 2030, innovative and high-growth unlisted technology companies will play a decisive role in renewing Finnish society, strengthening the economy, and addressing global challenges. Our goal is to have arranged a total of €1 billion in growth financing by the end of 2035. This figure includes the financing intermediated to date.

Financial targets for the long and medium term

• Our target is to achieve an average operating profit margin of over 20% and to add shares in portfolio companies to the balance sheet with an annual value of at least €5 million.
• We aim to arrange a total of €1 billion in growth financing by the end of 2035, including the company’s cumulative arranged financing of over €300 million to date.
• Springvest aims to be a reliable dividend payer: our target is to distribute at least 80% of both the annual profit and the proceeds from portfolio company exits as dividends. The company pursues an active dividend policy, taking into account its financial position and the applicable capital adequacy requirements.
