Copenhagen, Denmark - July 1, 2024

GRO announces the launch of its latest fund, GRO Generation I, with a raise of €150 million. Consistent with GRO’s proven investment strategy, the fund provides the team with greater flexibility to partner with high-growth B2B software companies across Northern Europe.

GRO Generation I marks an extension of GRO’s geographical reach by including the UK and Ireland to the existing core regions.

"By continuing to refine our focus, we aim to capitalize on a broader part of the value chain, ensuring that we do not overlook potential high-growth and consequently high-value investments across Northern Europe. This strategy is designed to enrich our portfolio and provide a good return to our investors,” says Lars Dybkjær, Managing Partner at GRO

Building on proven model

GRO Generation I is backed by existing investors along with new partners, reflecting strong confidence in GRO’s strategic vision and operational capabilities.

“GRO Generation will build on the proven GRO model with a narrow thematic focus on B2B software companies addressing fundamental societal challenges within resource efficiency, cybersecurity, energy and digitization,” says Lars Dybkjær.

GRO Generation I aims to invest in target companies with a min. annual recurring revenue of approx. €3 million. With a proven operational toolbox, supported by detailed benchmarking and an experienced team of operators, GRO will support these companies in building the necessary foundations for sustainable growth.
