sensiBel, an Oslo, Norway-based company manufacturing a ultra-high-sensitivity MEMS microphone, announced completing series A equity financing round closed at €15 million ($16.3M).

The money was raised from investors led by Trumpf Venture, joined by the EIC Fund and Norwegian VC investors Skagerak Capital, Investinor, and SINTEF Venture IV.

The proceeds will be used for ramping up the company's production capabilities and support development and research activities.
