Global investment meets Odense innovation – Evosep enters a new era in clinical proteomics

With Nordic Capital as majority shareholder, Evosep strengthens its global position – and Odense’s role as a rising life science city. 

The recent acquisition of Evosep by Nordic Capital marks the biggest direct life science exit in EIFO history. It’s a clear signal that Denmark is not just participating in the global health innovation race – we’re building companies that can lead it. 

From Local Startup to Global Player

Evosep’s journey from a local startup to a globally recognised player in clinical proteomics is rooted in Odense’s growing life science environment. This isn’t just a win for the company, but a win for the city, for Denmark, and for the strategic vision that connects research, business, and public investment. 

Evosep’s growth and the international investment are strong proof that Odense is establishing itself as a key life science city. Nordic Capital’s entry into the ownership group gives the company an even stronger foundation to realise its high ambitions. Evosep is a major strength in our life science environment, and we are looking forward to following the company’s continued journey. Both here in Odense and internationally, as the company continues to grow

Evosep’s Mission and Global Ambitions

Evosep, headquartered in Odense, is a pioneer in clinical proteomics, developing robust and scalable LC-MS workflows that simplify complex biological analysis. With Nordic Capital’s investment, the company is now poised to expand globally and accelerate its mission to make proteomics more accessible and impactful. 

“Nordic Capital has great expertise across biopharma, medtech and diagnostics, and we are thrilled to have them onboard as Evosep is moving into the next growth phase. Together, we aim to redefine how proteomics drives efficiency, quality, and insight across healthcare and life sciences. Evosep’s mission remains set in stone, and customers can expect us to continue pushing forward the standardization of LCMS-based proteomics with impactful products and solutions.”

International Collaboration and Investment

The partnership is a strong endorsement of the innovation coming out of Odense – and a clear signal that the city’s life science strategy is working. With a focus on international collaboration, talent attraction, and cross-sector innovation, Odense is becoming a natural home for companies like Evosep that are shaping the future of healthcare. 

We are very impressed by Evosep’s highly innovative and differentiated technologies to enable and enhance proteomics analysis. The company enjoys a strong and loyal backing in both academia and biopharma. Nordic Capital intends to leverage its significant expertise in diagnostics and life science tools to support Morten and his team in further expanding the company’s reach and product offering,”
