Investment thesis

Rymdkapital is a Swedish VC firm dedicated to backing the emerging 'newspace' sector across the Nordics and Europe. It seeks to attract entrepreneurs and investors to accelerate the commercialization of the space industry, believing the Nordic region has world-class entrepreneurs and leading technologies while Europe lags behind the US, China, and India in space investment. The firm views space as the next frontier for long-term value creation, well suited to the venture capital model, and frames innovation as a force for good and a driver of global competitiveness and sustainability.
