As an idea factory, incubator and investor– Askeladden & Co identifies opportunities, develop concepts and scale up companies. Our sweet-spot is in traditional industries that - until now - have seen limited consolidation, limited innovation, too high prices and a customer journey that has been standing still since the 90s. Askeladden &Co help entrepreneurs (Askeladder / Ash lads) succeed by mitigating the traditional risk factors one encounter when building a venture: funding access, low valuations and early dilution, limited experience and network, no salary and long timelines. Want to become an Askeladd? With or without an idea of your own - get in touch on martin@askeladden.co or 950 00 919.
