Licenseware raises 1 million euro in late Seed round lead by Early Game Ventures

We are happy to announce we have raised an investment round worth more than 1 million euros. Early Game Ventures led the round with participation from Fortech Investments, Acequia Capital, Hellen’s Rock. Aside from the main investors, Roca X, Growceanu, Transylvania Angels Network and Startup Wise Guys showed their appetite for joining the round. More than the capital, this follow-on round proves the continued trust of existing investors Early Game Ventures and Fortech Investments but also as valuable validation from an international group of investors.

“License management and controlling software spend represent major cost drivers for every organization. The market opportunity is huge and so far we’ve been making the right moves from a product perspective. We’re really grateful for the amazing validation from the industry and investors so far.” said Alex Cojocaru, Co-Founder, and CEO of Licenseware. “With this new capital, we’re ready to step-up our game and face the market head-on, while maintaining velocity on the product front.”

“Over the course of this year, our team has been hard at work perfecting the way we build and deliver apps. Our SDK makes building apps a breeze, our platform is reaching new levels of stability and observability, and our data engineers have the ability to extract insights out of any dataset, no matter how complex. This new investment round will allow us to deliver on Licenseware’s promise: faster time to value and reliable, easy to understand business insights for our customers.” said Ciprian Grigore, CTO, and Co-Founder of Licenseware.

“With the traction and market understanding we’ve found during 2022, combined with our bolstered app line-up, extensive roadmap and SDK to further accelerate development, we are set to drive Licenseware to a completely new level in 2023” said Chris Allen, CSO, and Co-Founder of Licenseware. “With this new investment we are focussing a significant amount of resources into bringing Licenseware to more of the world, extending our reach globally into strategic markets at a much more aggressive rate than we could achieve before, needless to say I’m very excited!”

Since securing €0,5M in December 2021, we have released 10 more apps and a public SDK which allows third parties to build and monetize apps on the Licenseware platform.
