Private equity house Adelis Equity Partners has acquired Stockholm-based Defiso Media, a search engine optimisation (SEO) agency, through its SУИgemedier platform.

Defiso becomes part of Søgemedier, the Danish digital marketing and media house acquired by Adelis in February this year. The acquisition of Defiso gives Søgemedier a base in Sweden, and the GP will hold a majority stake in the combined business.

Adelis intends to work together with the management teams of Søgemedier and Defiso to consolidate the group's position as a Nordic leader in the digital marketing industry, Adelis partner Joel Russ told Unquote.

The Stockholm-based GP held a final close for its latest vehicle, Adelis Equity Partners Fund II, on €600m in June 2017. The buyout house typically invests in small and medium-sized Nordic businesses with enterprise values in the €20-200m range.

Company
Established in 2013 and headquartered in Stockholm, Defiso is an SEO agency that provides services through Google Adwords and Facebook Advertising.

People
Adelis Equity Partners – Joel Russ (partner).
Defiso Media – Karlos Hanna (CEO).
Søgemedier – Allan Damborg (founder, CEO).
