Korona Invest -
Enabling growth

We take on a variety of challenges that come with change. Every growth story we invest in deserves a tailored structure for its growth path. Our strategy is based on identifying sustainable business operations, which include several value creation methods such as revenue growth, market expansion, and a responsible and meaningful societal impact.

Vesa Lehtomäki and Pasi Lehtinen founded the management company in 2006, and the first private equity fund was raised at the same time. The establishment of the fund was driven by the need to develop the surrounding society, a genuine desire to support our portfolio companies in achieving their growth goals and a wish to create new business models. This has been our approach in all four of our funds.

Tesi, along with several Finnish foundations and funds, insurance companies and other private investors, has invested in Korona Invest’s funds. Currently, a total of EUR 235 million has been raised for the four funds.

We are actively looking for interesting investment targets for our fourth fund.
