		Investor AB, the Swedish VC firm, has acquired 90% of ABB's shares in b-business partners, the pan-European venture capital outfit, taking its overall shareholding in the company to approximately 75%.
		Previously, both Investor AB and ABB held equal stakes of 40% in b-business, but the former lured the latter into selling the majority of its shareholding for a cash sum equivalent to around 112m.
		The move reflects the desires of both parties to focus on their respective core businesses, allowing Investor AB to pursue its strategy of strengthening its position in the European venture capital market while ABB will use the cash to concentrate on its power and automation technologies.
