Norway for Angels
Norway has the fastest growing startup ecosystem in the Nordics and the investors have also noticed the growth possibilities. The private angel ecosystem is driven by active local groups. For example AngelChallenge is the most active service facilitating angel syndicates. One of the most active startup accelerators, Startuplab has an angel fund, which has so far invested almost 6 million euros in ca 40 startups (and growing). And latest Fintech Angels, who have over 50 active angels investing in, well surprise, Fintech! :)
Other active local angel groups are BAN Bergen, BAN Trondheim and OIH Angels. There are also initiatives to gather the national activity of angels and we expect the Norwegian angel investment ecosystem take a very positive boost after the newly launched tax deduction for private startup investors.
