Gothenburg, June 1, 2026
Consat Telematics today announces that Bonnier Capital will become a new strategic partner in Consat Telematics. The investment marks an important milestone in Consat Telematics’ continued international growth journey and reflects strong confidence in the company’s technology platform, market position, and long-term vision for intelligent public transportation.
Bonnier Capital as a strategic partner
Bonnier Capital was attracted by Consat Telematics' strong market position, proprietary end-to-end technology platform and the exceptional team behind the company's proven track record in intelligent transport systems. The investment marks an exciting opportunity to support Consat Telematics' continued international expansion at a time when the demand for intelligent, sustainable, secure and integrated transport solutions is accelerating across cities and regions globally. Bonnier Capital sees Consat Telematics as a leading actor in shaping the future of public transportation infrastructure and looks forward to partnering with the company and its owners to drive the market forward and bring intelligent public transportation systems to even more cities around the world. The partnership underscores Bonnier Capital's long-term commitment to supporting ambitious Nordic growth companies with strong technology foundations and the potential to achieve lasting international impact.
Through the partnership, Bonnier Capital will take a strategic ownership stake in Consat Telematics, contributing long-term expertise, experience, and support as the company enters its next phase of development. Consat Telematics will continue to operate independently under its existing management team and brand.
The partnership brings additional expertise, resources, and many years of experience supporting companies through similar growth journeys. Together, the ambition is to strengthen Consat Telematics’ position as a leading international provider of intelligent public transportation solutions while continuing to stay close to customers and the operational realities of public transport systems.
For close to 20 years, Consat Telematics has delivered intelligent public transportation solutions to operators and public transport authorities across the Nordics and internationally. Today, the company’s solutions support public transportation systems in markets including Sweden, Norway, Canada, Australia, Dubai, and Brazil.
By combining onboard hardware, backend software, real-time communication, and advanced operational tools into one integrated platform, Consat Telematics helps public transportation systems become more efficient, accessible, reliable, and sustainable.
The new partnership is built around a shared ambition to accelerate growth and continue investing in innovation, customer success, and international expansion.
Future focus areas include:
- Continued international expansion through direct market presence and strong local partnerships
- Further investments in the company’s end-to-end solution
- Preparing the solution for future mobility trends, including autonomous and on-demand public transport
- Expanding scalable System-as-a-Service offerings where commercially viable
- Continuing to strengthen customer proximity, reliability, and operational excellence
“We have been truly impressed by what the team has built and by the drive and passion they bring to staying at the forefront of the ITS market. We are proud to partner with them and support their growth into many more cities around the world.” - Victor Bodin, Investment Director at Bonnier Capital
“We have built something truly unique over the past 20 years - a platform and organisation that today supports public transportation systems in some of the world’s most demanding markets. With this new partnership, we are strengthening our ability to continue growing internationally and ensuring that even more cities and passengers around the world can benefit from intelligent and sustainable public transportation,” says Pär Thuresson, CEO at Consat Telematics.
While ownership evolves, Consat Telematics’ commitment to customers, employees, and core values remains unchanged. The company will continue operating with the same focus on long-term relationships, high-quality delivery, and close collaboration with customers and partners.
