Luminar Ventures is a 600 MSEK ($60M) seed stage VC from Sweden. Founded by successful angel investors Magnus Bergman and Jacob Key, together with STING, the leading startup platform in Sweden. The fund aims to provide experienced seed stage financing and active operational support to Nordic-based early stage technology companies that are looking to disrupt or transform major industries with digital technologies and innovations. Founding partners, Magnus Bergman and Jacob Key, are both former serial entrepreneurs and active angel investors with a successful track record of founding and growing tech startups such as Truecaller, Prezi, Sportamore, FirstVet, and Challengermode, to name a few of the 50+ startups. Luminar’s core investment focus is on scalable digital seed stage companies from the Nordics, founded by highly motivated and talented entrepreneurs with a vision to disrupt or transform major industries. The fund is looking to lead seed rounds through an average investment of around 10 MSEK, but will also do larger late seed and smaller pre-seed investments in promising teams.
