CataCap invested in CASA in 2016 together with the three founders of the Company.
During CataCap’s ownership CASA developed from a regional construction company to becoming the leading construction management and real estate development company in Denmark.
Through an innovative business model, that combined low risk development activities with construction management using subcontractors, together with a strong culture, the company tripled it’s revenue and more than quadrupled it’s EBITDA – all through organic growth
In recognition of the company’s extraordinary results and “new breed” business model, CASA won the main prize at EY’s Entrepreneur Of The Year (Denmark, 2016).
In 2021 CataCap sold CASA to the European PE firm ActivumSG.
In 2022 CASA was used as the platform to merge with its largest competitor KPC, doubling the size of the business.
CataCap Invested in LanguageWire in 2017 together with founder Henrik Lottrup.
Through the period 2017 – 2021 LanguageWire developed from being a Nordic “challenger” to a leading European language service provider (LSP) serving a wide range of global brands. The company grew through a combination of organic growth as well as add-on acquisitions, and significant investments were made to develop internal AI/MT tools and customer service offerings. By 2021, LangaugeWire had approx. 2000 customers, 375 employees and more than 10 offices across Europe and US.
In 2021 CataCap sold LanguageWire to Bridgepoint (global private equity firm).
In 2022, LanguageWire achieved top position in CSA’s report on Top LSPs Specialised in Edited MT.

CataCap invested in GSV in 2015 together with the owner manager team.
At the time of CataCap’s investment in GSV the Danish equipment rental market was fragmented with no player holding more than approximately 10% market share. Under CataCap’s ownership GSV consolidated the market through five bolt-on acquisitions and organic growth, more than quadrupling revenue. Through significant investments in the organisation and the GSV platform the company set a new industry benchmark for service levels, digital solutions and electric/hybrid equipment offered to customers. For this, the company was awarded European Rental Association awards in 2020 for Best Sustainable Rental Project and in 2022 for Best Digital Innovation Project.
In 2022 CataCap sold GSV to Kiloutou a leading pan-European rental equipment company.
As an exception, Kilotou has chosen not to rebrand GSV, due to the strength of the brand and its market position.
