Nordic investor Voima Ventures is today announcing the closing of its €90m third fund to focus on deeptech from research laboratories and university spinouts. In the last few years Helsinki-based Voima has more than doubled its investment team, from the two founders — Mikko Kumpulainen and Inka Mero — to five investors and another seven experts, and opened a new office in Stockholm.
