Background
Public web research did not verify a current Capidea team profile, LinkedIn profile, headshot, biography, education history, or current role for Anders Kiehn Gronburg. The current Capidea team page does not list him among the firm’s team members.
The supplied stub data identifies him as a Director at Capidea, but I could not independently verify that title or the supplied direct email and phone number from public sources. The public facts that can be verified relate to Capidea: it is a Danish private equity fund established in 2006, headquartered at Grønningen 25, DK-1270 Copenhagen K.
Capidea manages four funds and reports approximately DKK 3.6 billion in total committed capital. Its stated model is to partner with owners and management teams of Danish SMEs, contributing capital, expertise, and networks to scale growth while preserving the company’s existing culture and growth plan.
