September 20, 2017 — Rocsole closed funding round of 1,3M Euros with private equity investors and Tekes, the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation.
“The funding will be used to strengthen the company’s international presence and growth”, says Rocsole’s CEO Anssi Lehikoinen.
In connection with closing of the funding round, Rocsole got accepted into Tekes’s Young Innovative Companies (NIY) program. The program aims to support young innovative companies to fast international growth.
