According to FSport’s CEO Hampus Hägglöf, the money is raised from a series of business angels.
“We have held an open dialogue with our existing shareholders, but the lion’s share of these twelve million kronor comes from new shareholders,” says FSport’s CEO Hampus Hägglöf to Rapidus.
The startup has had a lot of activity the last year, releasing a new trotting game and in the fall as well as an ice hockey game. The investment will be used to grow further and also to comply with the increased administration that online gaming for money faces in Sweden from 2019.
