Early-stage capital for Norwegian founders building climate solutions
Sondo is a Norwegian early-stage investor headquartered in Oslo. Through its second fund, Sondo Fund II, it invests in Norwegian technology companies at the pre-seed and seed stages. The fund will invest in 25–30 companies across areas such as climate and energy, enterprise software, fintech and health tech. The main focus is on software, with a deliberate balance between AI-native companies and companies without direct AI exposure.
A preferred partner for ambitious founders
Sondo was founded in 2021 by partners with a background from Startuplab, who have invested in Norwegian early-stage companies since 2014. Sondo works closely with founders and spends considerable time bringing in other investors to its portfolio companies. A broad founder network is its most important source of new investment opportunities. As a result, Sondo has quickly become a preferred partner for Norway’s most ambitious founders, in technology and climate alike.
Climate solutions start at the earliest stage
The fund will contribute to lower greenhouse gas emissions, mainly through investments in climate and energy. Many of tomorrow’s climate solutions start in the earliest stages, where capital is scarce. Through Sondo, Nysnø helps strengthen the Norwegian early-stage ecosystem and supports more climate companies with high growth potential.
