The venture capital Nordic Eye will not just bring capital to the company but also their ability to help accelerate the business and international growth. Ib Drachmann-Hansen, Investment Manager & Partner at Nordic Eye Venture Capital has concurrently joined the board of Skyresponse AB.

“We have followed Skyresponse very closely for more than eight months, where they have proved that they possess both a skilled team, and an exceptional, competitive product, within IoT alarms. Skyresponse is a well-established player on the Nordic market and is already present in more than ten countries in Europe in a number of important market segments. So, we have high expectations that our new investment in Skyresponse can benefit both them and us”, says Ib Drachmann-Hansen, Nordic Eye Venture Capital.

Thomas Ivarson, Chairman of the Board of Directors at Skyresponse says; “It is very encouraging to experience the rapidly growing demand for the advanced and secure IoT alarm and event management solutions of Skyresponse. The growth is strong both within elderly care as well as within smart buildings. It is indeed a strong signal of strength and potential for Skyresponse that Nordic Eye decided to invest in the company alongside the existing owners”.
