Eqt Private Equity To Invest In Software Companies Hvd Group And Next

EQT is pleased to announce that the EQT X fund (or "EQT Private Equity") has agreed to invest in the Nordic software companies HVD Group (Hantverksdata) and Next (Next One Technology). Both companies serve the tradespeople and construction industry, with HVD Group focused on installation and service professions – such as electricians, plumbers, heating and ventilation firms – while Next is focused on contractors. HVD Group's platform complements that of Next, and the investment therefore paves the way for a further strengthened product offering, which builds on both companies' strong customer satisfaction scores.
