ACACIA
Christer Jacobsson launched ACACIA in 2007 after building two IT consultancies in Sweden. His son Johan Jacobsson serves as CEO of Acacia AB and Olof Pettersson acts as CFO. The office manages the family’s investable assets without external LP capital. ACACIA targets expansion and growth equity in technology-enabled companies. It deploys through direct co-investments and SPVs in Europe. Confirmed positions include minority stakes in Byggfakta Group alongside TA Associates prior to the 2020 exit to Stirling Square Capital Partners, Hantverksdata with Adelis Equity Partners, and Novedo with Investment AB Spiltan. Additional holdings sit in Progrits, Tellent and Vinnergi. Geographic focus remains Europe. Team size and total deployment remain undisclosed. Christer Jacobsson holds board seats at Cedergrenska, Flowscape, Byggfakta Group and Novedo. Adjacent vehicles include co-investments with Bure Equity AB and Beijer Ventures. No philanthropic structures appear in public records. The office’s architecture keeps investment decisions inside the founding family while maintaining minority positions alongside external sponsors. This model limits external fundraising and preserves control over capital allocation across the listed European holdings.
