Riga, Latvia – Property management and construction firm HAGBERG is expanding into technology solutions for the property sector, establishing a new division, HAGBERG Technologies, and partnering with drone solutions company Air Technologies. The move, announced , represents a strategic investment of over €500,000 in equipment and training, signaling a broader shift towards tech-driven efficiency in the Baltic and Spanish property markets.
HAGBERG, founded in 2009, has grown from a cleaning service to a full-service real estate provider with over 1,100 employees and more than 1,000 clients across Latvia, according to company information. This latest venture builds on recent growth, including a €20 million funding round secured from Swedbank in October 2025, earmarked for expansion and technological upgrades. The company’s development pipeline includes residential villages “Dzilnupes” and “Ozolkalni” in Latvia, as well as a new project in Liepāja.
The core of HAGBERG Technologies will be integrating technology into professional property management. This includes utilizing drone technology for property inspections and monitoring, deploying professional cleaning robots, and implementing automation and quality control tools. The partnership with Air Technologies is crucial, providing not only the technology itself but also the necessary implementation, training, and technical support. Air Technologies specializes in agricultural applications of drone technology, and this collaboration marks an expansion into new sectors.
“Over recent years, we have grown rapidly and are deliberately expanding the scale of our operations,” said Ivars Lukaševičs, Member of the Board of HAGBERG. “Developing services beyond Latvia is an important step in our growth, and this direction makes it practically achievable. Together with Air Technologies, part of the HAGBERG group, we are strengthening our expertise while implementing solutions that are tested in real working conditions and meet modern quality standards.”
The initial focus will be on integrating these technologies into HAGBERG’s existing property management processes in the Baltics, specifically for property inspections, surveillance, and quality control. In Spain, the collaboration will initially center on supporting Air Technologies’ expansion and gaining experience in the market. Air Technologies aims to develop its operations in Europe, leveraging practical experience and real-world applications.
Armands Vīksna, Head of Air Technologies, explained that the partnership allows the company to adapt its drone expertise to other industries. “Collaboration with HAGBERG allows us to adapt our drone competence to other sectors and jointly develop this area with a partner who implements technologies as part of their daily processes,” Vīksna stated.
HAGBERG Technologies is structured as a competence center, responsible for the implementation and development of these solutions. This centralized approach aims to ensure consistent standards for technology integration, safe operation, and quality control across all projects. The company emphasizes a rigorous testing and refinement process before offering any technology-based service to clients, ensuring that solutions are “fully-fledged, efficient, and proven in practice.”
The investment in technology reflects a broader trend within the property management sector towards increased efficiency and data-driven decision-making. While the specific financial impact of these new technologies remains to be seen, HAGBERG’s move positions it to capitalize on the growing demand for innovative solutions in a competitive market. The company’s expansion into Spain also highlights its ambition to become a regional leader in property management and technology integration.
This investment follows a period of significant financial activity for HAGBERG. The €20 million secured from Swedbank will also be allocated to the development of residential projects, including the “Dzilnupes” and “Ozolkalni” villages, and a new development in Liepāja. This funding underscores the confidence of financial institutions in HAGBERG’s growth strategy and its ability to deliver sustainable, high-quality living spaces.
The company’s long-term vision, as articulated by Lukaševičs, is to enhance service quality and ensure consistent delivery. By prioritizing practical application and rigorous testing, HAGBERG Technologies aims to provide clients with reliable and effective solutions that address the evolving needs of the property management industry.
