For the second year in a row, four Skagerak Capital portfolio companies have been honored with spots on Deloitte’s Technology Fast 50 Norway list, a prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing technology companies in the country. Based on exceptional revenue growth over the past four years, the recognition underscores the strength of these companies’ innovative solutions and their significant market impact. Partner at Skagerak Capital Andreas Eskeland emphasizes that this achievement also validates Skagerak Capital’s investment strategy:

“For Skagerak Capital, it highlights our ability to identify and support companies with strong growth potential. Consistently having multiple portfolio companies on the Fast 50 underscores our role in fostering growth and creating value for both investors and society.”

Among this year’s honorees is Optoscale, an AI-driven company revolutionizing sustainability and efficiency in aquaculture. A Skagerak Capital portfolio company since 2021, this marks Optoscale’s debut on the Fast 50. Eskeland who is board member of Optoscale, praised the company’s impressive growth trajectory.

“Optoscale has delivered tremendous growth since our investment and has firmly established itself as a leader in the aquaculture industry,” Eskeland says. “Aquaculture is rapidly adopting innovative technologies to enhance sustainability and increase efficiency, so I’m confident this won’t be the last time we see Optoscale on the list.”

‍Repeat Recognition for Decisions and Sharebox

Returning to the Fast 50 for the second consecutive year are Decisions, an AI-powered meeting tool, and Sharebox, a global leader in secure key exchange technology. Decisions' extensive understanding of meeting processes and AI revolutionize how meetings are planned and conducted and their outcomes globally.

“Both companies are at the forefront of innovation in their respective fields and are gaining significant traction globally,” Eskeland notes, serving at the board for both companies.

Decisions’ inclusion on the list is a testament to its enduring growth and impact. Earlier this year, Skagerak Capital celebrated the successful exit of Sharebox, which was acquired by an international industry leader.

Diller’s innovative platform enables businesses to deepen customer relationships through loyalty programs and seamless payment solutions, reflecting the growing importance of customer engagement in an increasingly digital world.

Celebrating Innovation and Impact

At Skagerak Capital, we take immense pride in the success and impact of these companies. While Sharebox’ recognition marks the conclusion of a successful collaboration, Decisions, Diller, and Optoscale represent the ongoing growth and innovation that define our active portfolio.

“At Skagerak Capital, we believe in the power of backing companies that combine innovation, growth, and sustainability,” Eskeland concludes.
