We advised Enersense Group Oyj (listed on Nasdaq Helsinki) in its acquisition of the shares of Voimatel Oy through a share exchange and in a simultaneously carried out directed share issue to the seller, KPY Cooperative. The transaction further includes the target company’s foreign subsidiaries in Sweden and Estonia.
