Stena New Ventures

Bringing ideas to life

Stena New Ventures finds and develops ventures of the future to drive sustainable development and transformation by offering innovative solutions in materials and recycling.

The mission of Stena New Ventures is to identify and develop new business opportunities based on ideas both within Stena Metall and through collaboration with, or investment in, start-up companies. This may be a customer need that requires a new approach or a completely new business concept. Stena New Ventures actively seeks Nordic start-up companies with a clear potential for significant growth that have potential for a new position in a defined market segment, and will benefit from Stena Metall’s core competences. To identify business opportunities, networking and engaging with others is important for Stena New Ventures. Incubators at different universities are another source of opportunities for collaboration with start-ups.
