About Stena Sessan
Stena Sessan is the Olsson family investment holding within the Stena Sphere with an investment portfolio value exceeding SEK 6 billion (~€0.5-0.6 billion) as of December 2024, headquartered in Gothenburg, Sweden. The firm was founded in 1981 when Stena acquired the Sessan Line (Rederiaktiebolaget Svea/Sessan) and operates as a family investment holding wholly owned by the Olsson family, with an evergreen balance-sheet structure and approximately 14 portfolio companies.
Investment thesis
Stena Sessan deploys permanent capital through an evergreen balance-sheet holding (no discrete funds), targeting long-term, flexible-horizon responsible investing with active co-ownership under a value-for-generations philosophy. Sector focus spans technology and software, hospitality, logistics and e-commerce, biomedical, food tech, maritime, real estate and mobility. Geographic deployment is Nordics core, primarily Sweden. The platform combines permanent family capital with an unusually broad multi-sector diversification mandate spanning maritime heritage to consumer tech.
Recent activity
Recent realised exits include digital health (2025). Recent acquisitions include insurtech and pet insurance (February 2026) and drone-logistics technology (February 2026). The platform continues active deployment across the Olsson family evergreen holding mandate. Detailed buyer names and multiple data available on Pro at €49/month.
