Following the disastrous events in Oslo on July 22, we would like to express our deepest sympathies with the Norwegian nation, the victims and everyone who lost their loved ones in the terrible attacks.

In the middle of this insanity and horror, we are however relieved to confirm that the EQT Partners team in Oslo and their families are all safe. The EQT funds' portfolio companies with presence in Norway (XXL, InFiber, ISS, SSP, Scandic and BTX) have all also confirmed that none of their staff have been hurt.

Our thoughts are now with the victims and their families.
