We are impressed by how Qamcom uses its capabilities to create impact through its unique technology skill set. We believe that together we will continue to accelerate Qamcom’s growth and expansion and at the same time add perspectives on how to develop their portfolio of investments even further”, says Anders Jacobson, Managing Partner and one of the founders of Seven District.
“Seven District is an ideal investor for us at Qamcom. I believe that they will add significant value to our business through their operational and investment experience and the know-how they have among their founders and extended network. Seven District’s view on how to build mission-driven, technology-enabled businesses and how they support their portfolio companies over the long-term is unique and we are thrilled to have them on board”, says Johan Lassing, CEO and one of the founders of Qamcom.
The investment in Qamcom follows Seven District’s new strategy and platform, which was launched during the spring of 2022. The strategy aims to create a stage-agnostic, founder- and entrepreneur led investment company combining hands-on operational know-how with international institutional investment experience.
”The Qamcom investment is another important step in Seven District’s strategy; to build a portfolio of compelling businesses that leverage technology and entrepreneurship to address next-decade challenges that positively impact society. We believe Qamcom has the potential to be one of the leading companies in defining the technologies of the next century”, Anders Jacobson concludes.
