Gerako

Gerako was established in 1974 by Ari Kohonen. The firm operates as the single-family office for the founding family and maintains its headquarters in Espoo, Finland. Kohonen previously led Tekla Corporation before shifting focus to family capital oversight. The office deploys capital across industrial technology, proptech, digital health, media and entertainment, and sports and wellness. It executes growth-stage and venture capital investments through direct co-investments, SPVs and fund-of-funds structures. Activity centers on Europe. Gerako IS Oy, a group company, provides SaaS services for infrastructure asset data management using Trimble solutions. The team includes CEO Seppo Järvi and Finance Manager Anne Immonen. Gerako maintains an active membership in the Finnish Venture Capital Association. No additional offices or dated operational events from the last 24 months appear in available records. Gerako IS Oy functions as the group's operating vehicle for infrastructure software services while the parent office handles family investment allocation and real-estate holdings such as Colony Tapiola.
