Nordic expansion ambitions
With Castik as the majority owner, Aider will gain significant access to capital to continue its growth journey, both in Norway and with ambitions to become a Nordic player. Aider has also recently secured long-term financing through a bond issue of NOK 1.6 billion.
Simen Opsal, Investment Partner at Castik, stated in a press release: "Aider has proven its ability to attract talent, clients, and future partners. In a short period, they have built a unique company culture and become leaders in their niche. We are thrilled at the opportunity to partner with the Aider team and contribute to the company’s continued growth."
Congratulations to all involved!
