Stratel AS

Stratel AS is a family owned Norwegian investment and development company, founded in 1976 by Reidar Lorentzen. Stratel invests in entrepreneurs and companies with high ambitions, positive impact and a promising value potential. We invest in both startups and more mature businesses. ​Our investment philosophy is for Fun, Sense and Profit. Fun: Passion is a driving force and essential for what we invest in and who we work with. The synergi between the two makes it fun. Good partnering, with people we respect, is a condition for success and for the survival of our passion. Sense: Signals our preference for companies and solutions with a clear positive impact on society. Profit: Is a must in order to obtain sustainability. Profit enables us to take risks, bear losses, make alternative choices, stay independent and participate in philanthropy. As an investor, our aim is to be an active, competent and good owner in our portfolio companies. We do have a long-term view of our investments. Our exits are a result of what we find right for the company, our partners and our own interests. Stratel has obtained several successful exits. ​
