Lyvia is a pan-European group that develops and delivers business-critical software, SaaS solutions and expert services in technology, digital design, marketing and consulting for business customers.
Lyvia Group is a European technology group headquartered in Stockholm that acquires and develops niche, entrepreneur-led software companies and digital services businesses. The group was formed in 2022 through a consolidation of several companies within the Esmaeilzadeh Holding (EHAB) portfolio and operates across eight European countries. Lyvia delivers mission-critical software and related services across three verticals: SaaS Platforms, Software & IT Services, and Digital Marketing & Creative Consulting. The group's B2B products and services are deeply integrated into customers' daily operations across sectors including IT and telecom, the public sector and other industries with strong digital demand. As of 2024, the group's pro forma net sales amounted to approximately SEK 2.2 billion with around 1,550 employees.
Lyvia Group's business model is based on identifying and acquiring companies with strong market positions, scalable business models and the potential to become leaders within their respective segments. The group provides both capital and operational support to drive growth and profitability, while acquired companies continue to operate under their own brands with their unique culture and values. Revenue is generated through long-term partnership agreements and client engagements in digital solutions, with a focus on recurring revenue streams. Lyvia combines acquisition-driven growth with organic expansion and emphasizes a decentralized model where portfolio companies are supported by the group's collective industry knowledge, expertise and network.
Lyvia Group has grown rapidly through an active acquisition strategy. The group has completed a large number of acquisitions since its inception, including companies such as Seventy Agency, Aditso, Traventus, Procon Digital, Gorilla Services, Facility Kwadraat (Benelux), Dokeos (Belgium) and PTC Werkstap (the Netherlands). During 2025, Lyvia rebalanced its portfolio by divesting companies such as Bright Inventions and focusing on strengthening the balance between its Software and Solutions business areas. In March 2026, Martin Almgren, with a background from SkiStar, AddLife and Addtech, was appointed as new CEO. Majority owner Esmaeilzadeh Holding has communicated plans for an IPO, and the group has carried out a new share issue to reduce leverage ahead of a potential listing.
