Sweden for Angels
This startup loving country has some amazing big institutional investors, but also more visible business angels. Stockholm is leading the investment game and this is supported by local angel groups like Stoaf, which is currently running their 3rd fund and the model seems to expand in Sweden. Also Stockholm City’s accelerator Sting runs an angel group and a fund, mainly investing in companies from their own track. The Keiretsu Forum Nordics is arranging several angel trainings. ConnectSverige is gathering angels together on the national level and is focusing on building additional angel services. Other local angel groups are Västkustens Affärsänglar, Keiretsu Forum, The Springfield Project, J12 Ventures and Angelr. The majority of Swedish startup ecosystem activity is mapped in The Nordic tech list. |
