Today we are thrilled to announce our new investment in the Swedish fast growing educational technology company Humly. Humly is the leading digital marketplace in the supply teaching industry for both private and public sector in Sweden and the UK. The easy-to-use matching of teachers and educators enable nurseries and schools to fill short and long-term gaps, addressing the teacher shortage in both markets.
We invest alongside existing Norwegian investor Viking Venture and the proceeds will accelerate Humly’s growth in the UK market. We expect to add experience of helping Nordic companies to scale internationally and in addition previous investments in digital marketplaces as well as educational technology. Read more here.
