NorthMerge was established in 2020 by Swedish entrepreneurs Ola D. Jonsson and Björn Sylvander in partnership with a distinguished industrial family from South America. Renowned for their internationally acclaimed enterprises and a strong industry brand, this influential family also holds an extensive portfolio of companies across diverse sectors.
Currently, NorthMerge employs 12 individuals, primarily consisting of technicians and business developers, with its headquarters located in Santiago, Chile. Additionally, a small administrative office operates under a separate entity in Norrahammar, Sweden.
The company has established partnerships with joint venture firms in Portugal, Spain, Brazil, and Kenya. Since 1999, Ola and Björn have been actively engaged in various business sectors and corporate configurations in both South America and Europe.
Björn holds an academic background in mathematics and pedagogy, while Ola possesses a diverse educational foundation in behavioural science, law, and economics, complemented by experience as a professional officer with training from three military universities.
Industrial Technologies Innovation
Through long-term collaborations with major industries, management teams, and owners of both South American and European companies that are at the forefront of industrial technology development with their own research, science and development initiatives. Ola, Björn, and NorthMerge have built a comprehensive network in business development.
Real estate acquisitions
Furthermore, we have been involved in real estate acquisitions, particularly in hotel properties and hotel operators, as well as industrial properties, shopping malls, office spaces, and residential properties throughout Europe, primarily in Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and Denmark.
In these regions, we have cultivated a robust network and established trust among significant property owners and investors. Many of the targeted properties have been off-market, meaning they were not officially available for sale. The property owners value confidentiality, integrity, and discretion, and the trust developed with real estate investors is founded on a mutual respect for these principles.
