Today Deltaq has selected 10 advisory board members. The members are experienced managers, who individually possess outstanding business qualifications within different lines of business. Their joint role is acting as business ambassadors for Deltaq and work as creative sparring partners in relation to establish and secure the private equity fund’s future development.

The existing companies’ growth and value creation is now brought into focus. In this regard the Advisory Board’s members will contribute to secure that Deltaq stands by the company’s vision and strategy, when it comes to the development of Deltaq, being a leading market player for generational and ownership changes for small and midsize companies as well as supporting Deltaq regarding acquisitions and disposal of portfolio companies.
