Our Story

Founded by serial technology entrepreneurs in downtown Salt Lake City, The Stena Group is a family office that is dedicated to the creation of enduring economic empowerment for underserved communities.

Through access to quality education, a complete range of financial services and broadband connectivity, individuals, families, and whole communities can be lifted from the effects of economic stagnation.

To support our mission, we are strategically deploying capital into philanthropic initiatives, wholly owned businesses, and venture backed businesses. Our strategic and philanthropic investments range from the establishment of the Stena Center for Financial Technology at the University of Utah to multiple consumer retail brands and technology-forward organizations.

At Stena, we seek to reimagine the traditional approach to philanthropy.

Why? We believe nothing is more vital than setting in motion enduring economic empowerment for underserved individuals, families, and communities.

And achieving this kind of dynamic impact requires equally dynamic operations.

That’s why we’re embarking on a bold experiment to prove that by leveraging and multiplying the full range of operations in a family office—including philanthropy, external capital, and internal capital—we can multiply the impact of traditional efforts.

“Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much.”
