| ArcticStartup has been instrumental in fostering vibrant communities with limitless opportunities through its diverse offerings of media, events and PR services since its inception in 2007. ArcticStartup operates also as an independent technology news platform dedicated to covering digital startups and the burgeoning landscape of entrepreneurship in the Nordic and Baltic regions. The comprehensive reporting on the latest developments and industry trends serves to bolster the robust entrepreneurial ecosystem in Northern Europe. The primary objective is to foster a culture of entrepreneurship and strengthen the bonds within the Nordic and Baltic communities. One of the standout events, Arctic15, draws a global audience of investors, startups, scaleups, corporations, and key influencers to Helsinki every spring. Additionally, the organization proudly organizes another notable event, NORDEEP Nordic Deep Tech Business Summit, which takes place annually in October and rotates through various Nordic countries. Notably, the company has also successfully hosted the acclaimed Food Tech event, TONIC, every year since 2016, held just before the renowned SLUSH event in Helsinki. In 2020, ArcticStartup faced a critical financial crisis, which was exacerbated by the onset of the pandemic. However, in the autumn of 2020, Vedat Öndas assumed leadership, heralding a remarkable period of growth and stability for the company. As a result, ArcticStartup secured investments from 11 prominent investors, including the esteemed Gary Vaynerchuk from the United States. Under the adept leadership of Vedat Öndas, the company has continued to flourish and expand its reach. | Convertible Note / May 19, 2022 | ||
| Carbo Culture is a Nordic-American carbon tech startup that removes carbon from the atmosphere. Carbo Culture removes atmospheric carbon and turns it into a functional material called biocarbon through its own patented technology that exposes woody waste to an ultra-high temperature for an instant. But that’s not all. The biocarbon’s benefitsare twofold: 1) the carbon maintains a stable form that keeps out of the atmosphere for up to 1,000 years and 2) it’s a functional material that can be applied to further environmental benefits, such as biomaterials or soil.In other words, Carbo Culture’s biocarbon not only has the power to remove carbon from the atmosphere and help mitigate climate change, but also help adapt to climate change by using the material itself. | $6.2M / Seed / Apr 14, 2021 | ||
