- VNV Global AB (publ) operates as a private equity and venture capital firm, dedicating itself to investments across various stages including seed, early, mid, and late-stage ventures, alongside growth capital and buyout opportunities. The company strategically identifies and supports businesses globally, with a focus on online marketplaces, consumer-oriented services, and business-to-business models, specifically targeting those that exhibit strong network effects. While its investment scope is worldwide, it concentrates on regions such as Africa, the Middle East, European emerging markets, Latin America, the Caribbean, and North America, excluding China. This investment vehicle seeks to acquire significant minority positions in unlisted entities, aiming for active engagement through board representation in its portfolio companies. Its approach is stage-agnostic, backing entrepreneurs who leverage technology to address substantial real-world challenges across large markets. Key areas of interest encompass digital health, mobility solutions, and marketplace platforms. Recent activities in 2025 include the successful exit from Gett, completed in August, generating approximately USD 89.1 million. Furthermore, the company realized a divestment from Tise following its acquisition by eBay, with VNV Global selling its shares for around USD 11.0 million in September. A partial redemption of its 2024/2027 bonds was also finalized in October. The firm's net asset value per share experienced an increase in USD terms over the first nine months of 2025, influenced positively by a revaluation of its stake in Voi and negatively by BlaBlaCar. Notably, its portfolio company Voi secured a significant contract with the City of Paris in June to deploy electric bikes. Headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, VNV Global AB (publ) was established on April 5, 2007, and maintains an additional office in Hamilton, Bermuda.
