Northcap in DKK 23m series-B for Colego
Danish VC Northcap has led a DKK 23m series-B round in business services bidding platform Colego.
The investment comes less than three months after Northcap injected DKK 15m into Colego from its DKK 524m third fund, NCP-IVS III. The most recent round brings the total raised by the three-year-old company to DKK 38m.
Colego will use the fresh cash to accelerate its growth and hire additional developers to build apps for its platform. The capital will also support the company's expansion in the Danish and German markets.
Telecommunications entrepreneur Peter Mægbæk also participated in the round.
