A great home for great companies

We are Patricia Industries

Patricia Industries develops companies – in the Nordics and North America – with strong customer relationships, brands and organizations.

In short

We focus on industries with long-term growth potential where our experience, knowledge and network give us an edge. We are the only owner in our companies and hence the sole source of owner direction and expectation-setting vis-à-vis our subsidiaries.  Our main priority is to be a great owner of our existing companies, but we also look for new companies to acquire.

Patricia Industries is a part of the industrial holding company Investor AB, whose main owner is the Wallenberg Foundations.

In short

Our business concept

Our business concept is to build wholly-owned companies in the Nordics and North America within three prioritized areas: medical technology and life science tools/reagents, industrial technology, Real estate and infrastructure. We focus on industries with long-term growth potential where our experience, knowledge and network give us an edge. We have a long-term ownership horizon, and the aim is to exceed 90 percent ownership, with the companies’ managements and boards of directors as co-owners, to ensure full alignment of interest.
