Careligo raises SEK 3.6M in investment

CareLigo, a Stockholm, Sweden-based company providing a software tool for monitoring heart failure patients, announced closing its third investment round by raising SEK 3.6M ($430k) in capital to the company.

Prior to this deal, the company secured more than $1M in funding, and the list of shareholders includes Anders Thell, Gunnar Németh, Fredrik Näslund, Anders Németh, Oskar Ahlberg, Maximilian Hermelin, Angelr AB, Magnus Thorarensen, Alexander Zahari, Christian Petersen, Kristian Bye and Mattias Weinhandl.
