About Creades

Creades is a Swedish investment company listed on Nasdaq Stockholm. It takes an active ownership role in small and medium-sized Nordic businesses, both listed and unlisted, with a view to building value over the long term.

The company came into being when Investment AB Öresund was split at the turn of 2011 and 2012, and it has been listed since 2013. Its name comes from the idea of creative destruction, and it favours companies that challenge established ways of working through innovation and digitalisation.

What Creades offers

  • Active ownership — it holds significant stakes and works with the businesses it owns.
  • Listed holdings — the larger part of its portfolio, including Avanza, Silex and Apotea.
  • Unlisted growth companies — a substantial share, including StickerApp, Inet, Instabee, Lumene and Mentimeter.

Who it works with

Small and mid-sized companies in the Nordic region.
