Spark leads $14m round for Homelike

Existing investors Cherry Ventures, Lürssen and Coparion also took part in the latest financing.

The fresh capital will be used to expand the company and improve the product. Homelike will open London offices this month and is hiring across all areas, especially technology and product development, according to a statement.
