📣 We're happy to announce that SEB pension funds have become a key investor in Superangel 📣 💬 “The partnership between SEB and Superangel shows that major institutional investors have long-term confidence in innovation in our region,” said Superanegl partner Marko Oolo, adding that the investment significantly strengthens Superangel’s ability to invest in innovative tech companies in the Baltics and Nordics. SEB, one of the leading Nordic financial groups, has a presence in 22 countries around the world, but focuses on the Baltic States and Nordic countries. Its international reach allows the group to contribute capital, knowledge and contacts to assist in the development of tech companies operating in the New Nordic region. SEB’s pension funds are managed by SEB Varahaldus. 💬 SEB Varahaldus manages six actively managed and two passive pension index funds. ‘While pension index funds can only invest in global listed companies, actively managed funds have a broader range of options and can also participate in the growth stories of early-stage companies in their home region. Innovative start-ups in the New Nordic region excellently complement our portfolios of higher-risk, higher-return actively managed pension funds. The team has a long and successful track record of investing in and supporting the development of technology companies. This is perfectly in line with SEB’s aim to promote sustainable innovation in the Baltic and Nordic countries. By joining forces, we will support the next wave of technological breakthroughs and contribute to the long-term development of our region’s ecosystem,’ said Endriko Võrklaev, CFA, Fund Manager at SEB Varahaldus.

🥳 Today we’re announcing our investment to Nanordica Medical to support the team in their mission to treat chronic wounds with advanced wound care 🩹 💡 100 million patients suffer from chronic wounds such as diabetic foot, venous leg and pressure ulcers and the prevalence is increasing by 12% annually. Patients with infected wounds are typically treated with systemic antibiotics or traditional antibacterials. The Nanordica Medical’s team discovered that by combining copper with silver nanoparticles, bacterial infection can be inactivated up to 8x better compared to traditional antibacterial solutions. This means improved safety and faster healing for patients going through the discomfort of living with hard to treat wounds. Great to welcome you to the portfolio Olesja Bondarenko Meelis Kadaja Anna-Liisa Kubo, PhD Grigory Vasiliev! 🤩 https://lnkd.in/djQn-2fZ
