42Cap, High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF) and Littlerock have invested in a €1.8m funding round for human resources network MoBerries.
The company will use the new funding to develop its technology and expand internationally. Also investing in the round were business angels Michael Brehm, Thomas Baum, Magnus Tessner, Tim Stracke, Paul Schwarzenholz, Björn Kolbmüller, Roman Kirsch and Joachim Bernecker.
HTGF was attracted to the company's client base and novel membership model, which avoids traditional hiring fees.
