As part of the deal, Tabors and Battery Principal Zak Ewen will serve as observers on the Forterro board. Battery will also continue to serve as a business development resource and help define the company’s new acquisition strategy, explore potential targets and execute transactions.

“Battery was a foundational architect of the Forterro platform, scaling the company from its roots in the Nordic market to a pan-European one,” said Forbes. “Battery’s partnership has been invaluable and the company continues to leverage its network and expertise across the board, most recently purchasing Forterro’s newest acquisition, OrderWise, in a transaction announced earlier this month that will significantly expand Forterro’s footprint in Northern Europe . ”
