Working at kinnevik

The Kinnevik investment team boasts a diverse range of expertise, from entrepreneurs and engineers to PhDs, bankers, management consultants, and social media experts. We come from different countries and backgrounds, mirroring the innovative companies and founders we support.

We’re based in Stockholm and London, but the work we do is unbound by geography and time zones. Our investment professionals double as operators, working hands-on to build, scale, support and accelerate our portfolio companies across Europe and the U.S.

Kinnevik is always moving, always going forward. Yet, we’re grounded in a spirit of entrepreneurship that’s materialised through a bold, empowering, and inclusive company culture where every idea matters, and diverse opinions are encouraged.

To us, working with diversity and inclusion, is a key business enabler that drives better commercial outcome, and it’s a factor we embed into our core work processes. Recognising that diversity is so much more than gender, we work broadly with representation and inclusion, including cultural and ethnic minorities. To ensure we extract the most from our diverse team and constantly sharpen our investment mindset, we’ve actively worked to unleash openness and inclusion within our discussion and decision-making forums with the aim of creating an environment where everyone feels empowered to challenge each other and speak up.

Working at Kinnevik means having impact, influence, and to treasure collaboration. We’re investing for the long term, and our team dedicates their resources and expertise to support our founders to make their visions reality and by that improve people’s everyday lives.

"The notion that return and impact wouldn't go hand in hand is wrong. Rather, the opposite. What we see is that climate tech companies actually make more profit."

Nina Holtenius

HR Director

"Working on and nurturing your culture is an enabler for high performance, talent attraction, and high engagement."

Tatiana Shalalvand 

Investments

"Backing companies very early is part of our DNA. Some of our biggest hits have been with companies we backed early on – Pleo and Zalando are great examples of that."

Diversity & Inclusion

Besides our fundamental belief in equal rights for all employees, Kinnevik believes diversity and inclusion brings clear business benefits as it leads to improved financial performance, higher degree of innovation, better decision making and creation of value over the long-term.
