Original: Palantir CEO Alex Karp quietly purchased 37,000 acres of forests in Sweden—and locals found out when hunters lost leases to use the property
Alex Karp, chief executive of Palantir, has quietly acquired around 37,000 acres of forest in Sweden through Cladonia Skog AB, a newly registered company he owns. The purchase came to light only when local hunters lost their leases to use the land. The company said it would use the property for 'forestry and other related activities,' prompting frustration among residents who were not informed.
Why now: The secretive purchase and its impact on local hunting rights surprised rural communities and raised questions about foreign ownership of Swedish land.
