Responda Group acquires Personlig svarsservic...IK Partners to invest in Responda Group

Leading provider of customer service solutions in Sweden

Responda Group (“the Group”) is a Swedish provider of customer service and support outsourcing solutions for small to medium-sized enterprises (“SMEs”) in Sweden. Headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, the Group offers solutions through various omni-channels such as call, email, chat, social media and client systems.

Responda AB was founded in 2008 by Joakim Ögren and Magnus Johannessen and later became Responda Group as a result of the acquisition of Kalix Tele24 in 2021. The Group has over 250 employees who are spread across four offices and serve a diversified customer base of around 3,500 companies within the private and public sectors.

IK Partners acquired Responda Group from its founders in March 2023.
