Breakit is a Swedish business news site focusing on the new technology and the innovations reshaping the world of business. SwediaCapital’s engagement in this fast growing news channel was initiated already at the seed stage.

“I approached Staffan Persson to get his input on our sales pitch to raise funding. This meeting ended with a hand shake and Staffan being one of our investors,” says Breakit co-founder Stefan Lundell.

That meeting took place in 2014. Today Fredrik Persson is a board member. In 2020 the company had a turnover of 33 million SEK.

“Entrepreneurs love knowledgeable investors that can make good and fast decisions. During my 20 years as a journalist I have covered a lot of different types of venture capitalists, from huge institutions to more agile investors. The Persson family is definitely one of the best to have on board. They work with their own money. They are competent. And decisions can be made during an ongoing meeting. Staffan and Fredrik Persson’s good reputation and network has also been a door opener that has given us valuable access to other investors,” says Stefan Lundell.
