Comment on Semcon’s acquisition of the design and engineering agency Propeller:

Acquisition of Propeller, the well-reputed design agency, underpins Semcon’s position as one of the most prominent design and engineering companies in Europe. With Propeller, Semcon gains a group of designers repeatedly recognised for their innovativeness. Propeller has shown it is possible to generate additional sales by giving everyday items a design that is attractive to customers.

Robin Edman, CEO of SVID, Swedish Industrial Design Foundation, comments on Semcon’s acquisition of Propeller:

“It’s excellent that the Swedish design industry is beginning to adapt to the international market. Otherwise we would soon have the major foreign industrial design companies here. There are many small enterprises in the industrial design industry in Sweden, making it difficult for us to become international.”
