SEB Greentech

SEB Venture Capital is the corporate venture capital arm of Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken (SEB), one of the largest Nordic banking groups, headquartered in Stockholm and operational since 1995. The fund is considered one of the leading fintech investors in the Nordic region. Its approximately 27-person team spans Sweden and Norway and includes 4 Partners and 7 Principals; the team takes active board director roles in portfolio companies, guiding strategy, financials, incentive design, and organizational development. SEB Venture Capital leads rounds and focuses on innovative technology and fintech companies across the Nordics and Baltics — Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania — with adjacent interests in AI, machine learning, automation, sustainability technology, energy technology, enterprise applications, and new financial-sector business models. Initial checks run SEK 10 to 30 million (approximately $1 to $3 million), with total follow-on capacity up to SEK 80 to 100 million (approximately $7.5 to $9.5 million) per company, and the fund targets ownership of 15 to 40 percent at entry. Across 161 lifetime investments, named portfolio companies include Capcito (receivables-based financing), Leasify, Cardlay (card and travel expense management), Hedvig (digital insurance), Insurely (insurance aggregation), LENEO, Lysa (automated savings platform with 100,000-plus customers), and Gradyent Technologies. Recent activity includes first-time investments in Gradyent and a follow-on in Insurely in 2025. SEB Venture Capital's investments can be exploratory, purely financial, or a strategic fit with SEB's commercial lines, and portfolio companies receive access to SEB's international network, regulatory expertise, and balance sheet. That combination of patient capital and institutional distribution has made the fund a first-call partner for fintech and enterprise technology founders across the Nordic region.
