As Poslovni Dnevnik/Tomislav Pili writes on the 19th of December, 2019, Ante Mandić from Insig2, Damir Sabol from Photomath, and Ivan Mrvoš, founder of Include – are the most famous names from the Croatian technology community who decided to invest in STEMI educational and technological startups. The Zagreb-Rijeka based company presented its campaign on the Funderbeam SEE platform back on November the 28th, 2019.
The campaign aims to raise a minimum of 300,000 euros that STEMI will invest in growing and scaling its new school-based subscription business model and accessing a part of the global market where more than 3.5 million schools are interested in developing their students’ STEAM skills and knowledge. The campaign is still ongoing and investors in STEMI have already indicated an amount of 225,000 euros, as Funderbeam SEE announced on Thursday.
In addition to the investors already mentioned, Vedran Brničević from Suprabit, Luka Abrus and Viktor Marohnić from Five, Hrvoje Pušelj from Dataciph and Tajana Barančić and Mihovil Barančić from Astra Business Engineering decided to participate in this campaign. Tomislav Car from Infinum, Luka Sučić from Eternity, Davor Runje from Airt, Bozidar Pavlović from Oradian, Damjan Miklić from RoMb Technologies, Scott Coleman and Goran Deak from TDA, and Hrvoje Bujas from Crno Jaje also decided to invest.
”We currently have over 150 investors from about twenty countries, and most of them are looking forward to the support of the local tech community, which shows that success is not lost if we stick together. Our programmes need help to reach the global market and people have recognised that,” said Marin Trošelj, CEO of STEMI.
Include’s Ivan Mrvoš said he met a team from STEMI a year ago and has been following their successes ever since.
“The fact that they have already penetrated into nine markets, including the US market, certainly encouraged me to join their investment cycle as a small investor,” Mrvoš said.
