We are proud to make the following two announcements.
Our value creation and exit experience has received recognition as we have been appointed to manage the growth company portfolio of Korkia, a Finnish company operating internationally in asset management and strategic management consulting. Along with the agreement, the portfolio of fourteen growth companies operating in a range of industries from healthcare to maritime will move under Butterfly Ventures’ management. Our objective is to support these firms to take the next steps in their growth, and eventually formulate successful exit paths. We are excited to start the collaboration and look forward to working together with the management of the companies.
Furthermore, we are delighted to announce that we have a new member in Butterfly Ventures: Anti Kodar has joined our team as a Tallinn-based venture partner. Kodar provides valuable insight into the Baltic market – from the inside – besides adding strong legal and business experience to the team.
