Our approach

NEA Public Value applies a private equity philosophy to listed companies by building significant, influential positions in Nordic nano-, micro-, and small-cap companies with a market capitalization of up to SEK 1 billion. Additionally, the fund can invest in pre-IPO opportunities.

We focus on high-quality companies that are undervalued compared to their true potential for value creation.

Our primary investment strategy is to partner with active entrepreneurs in companies with significant growth potential. By providing capital and leveraging the NEA network, we help unlock opportunities and support long-term success.
