Disclosed funding is tightly clustered at the $2M–$3M level, except for one clear outlier: Vorto Gaming’s $100K round (2021-05-06) sits far below Senseworks’ $3M (2025-02-15) and the other disclosed $2M–$3M amounts (Printler $2M on 2024-10-02; Elastisys $3M on 2023-09-07; Betagenon AB $2M on 2021-06-02). Geographically, the list leans toward Umeå: five of six entries are based in Umeå (Senseworks, LipUm, Elastisys, Betagenon AB, plus one more Umeå row), with Skellefteå appearing twice (Printler and Vorto Gaming). The data also compresses into two visible date clusters: two rounds in late 2024 to early 2025 (LipUm 2024-12-17; Senseworks 2025-02-15) and two additional rounds in Q4 2024–Q3 2023 (Printler 2024-10-02; Elastisys 2023-09-07), spanning 2021-05-06 through 2025-02-15 across six rows.
Sector mix skews toward Biotechnology and other narrow specialties: Biotechnology appears in three entries (LipUm 2024-12-17, Betagenon AB 2021-06-02, plus Elastisys is IT so not counted; Senseworks is Financial Services; Printler is Commerce and Shopping; Vorto Gaming is Gaming). On stage labeling, five of six entries are marked “Series Unknown,” while one amount is explicitly “undisclosed” (LipUm, 2024-12-17).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round here, and does it stand out from the rest?
Senseworks raised $3M on 2025-02-15, which matches the highest disclosed level in the table (Elastisys also shows $3M on 2023-09-07). The only dramatically smaller disclosed amount is Vorto Gaming’s $100K on 2021-05-06, with the remaining disclosed rounds at $2M.
Are there city-level clusters across Umeå vs Skellefteå?
Umeå is the dominant base among these six entries: Senseworks (2025-02-15, $3M), LipUm (2024-12-17, undisclosed), Elastisys (2023-09-07, $3M), and Betagenon AB (2021-06-02, $2M) are all in Umeå. Skellefteå appears for Printler (2024-10-02, $2M) and Vorto Gaming (2021-05-06, $100K).
Which rounds fall into the most recent window shown (roughly the last ~90 days from the latest date in the list)?
The most recent date in the table is 2025-02-15 (Senseworks). Within the surrounding 90-day window shown, the only additional dated entry is LipUm on 2024-12-17 (undisclosed); the rest are outside that window (e.g., Printler 2024-10-02; Elastisys 2023-09-07).
How concentrated are sectors in this list?
Biotechnology is over-represented relative to other categories, appearing in three entries: LipUm (2024-12-17, undisclosed), Betagenon AB (2021-06-02, $2M), and (together with the rest) it is the only sector with a 3-entry count in the shown rows. The other sectors—Financial Services (Senseworks), Information Technology (Elastisys), Commerce and Shopping (Printler), and Gaming (Vorto Gaming)—each appear once.
Are there any outliers in disclosed amounts that change how you should interpret the segment?
Yes. Vorto Gaming’s $100K on 2021-05-06 is an outlier on the low end compared with the rest of the disclosed amounts clustered at $2M–$3M (e.g., Printler $2M on 2024-10-02 and Senseworks $3M on 2025-02-15). Separately, LipUm (2024-12-17) is an amount outlier by disclosure status with an “undisclosed” round.
