Klas Johansson has decided to step down as Co-Managing Partner at Altor for personal reasons. Klas will, as of June 30 this year transition to a role as Senior Advisor and Board Member of Altor portfolio companies for at least the next two years. Klas is currently serving on the boards of Stegra, IYUNO and Norican.
“My journey at Altor has exceeded anything I could ever wish for as we have built a fantastic investment firm with a truly unique culture. I’m very proud of what we have achieved together with our companies, investors and advisors. I look forward to remaining close to the Altor community and continue my efforts to create value for our investors. I have great confidence in our leadership team and that our next generation of leaders will continue to build our great firm,” says Klas Johansson.
“I have had the pleasure of working closely with Klas for the last 21 years and he has made an important contribution to building the unique Altor culture we all know and cherish. As Co-Managing Partner together with Paal Weberg, he has played a key role in driving the current strong momentum of the firm and setting the future strategic direction for the firm. Klas will be deeply missed in our daily rhythm, yet never too far away, as his passion and dedication are deeply rooted in the foundation of our firm. No need for goodbyes as Klas will stay on board as a Senior Advisor and valued Board Member for our companies, and we obviously wish he will return in a full-time role in the future,” says Harald Mix, Founder and CIO at Altor.
