Founders A/SAktiv

Description of key activities of the companyFounders is a startup studio. We build companies from scratch and attract talented individuals to join and eventually run them. Our mission is to be synonymous with early-stage company building and the ultimate partner for the best people who want to build ambitious, innovative companies. Our partners are either co-founders who develop and ultimately lead companies created in our studio, or early-stage teams we invest in and work with applying our platform of expertise. At our core, we are company builders and therefore Founders is a development company rather than an investment company. The company's owners have a combined tradition of doing business with the priority of long-term value without targeted exit strategies. It is the company's aim to maintain this mindset in Founders. In addition to Founders, the group consists of portfolio companies where technology is the common denominator.

Total losses on financial assets amounted to DKK 47.4m, which is the main driver of the net loss of DKK 47.4m compared to a profit of DKK 50.4m last year.
