Tenity, the global early-stage fintech venture fund, has appointed Oliver Sjöstedt as Principal for the Nordics and the UK.
Based in Copenhagen, he will oversee investments in both regions, focusing on pre-seed and seed-stage companies in fintech, insurtech, and web3.
The move reflects Tenity’s focus on the Nordic and UK markets and builds on its existing partnerships there.
With a local presence supported by its wider global network, the firm aims to strengthen links between two of Europe’s leading fintech hubs.
“We are delighted to welcome Oliver to the team. Founders in the UK and Nordics will benefit from his deep local network and hands-on experience, while also gaining access to Tenity’s global platform. Oliver embodies the kind of partner we want for entrepreneurs: supportive, connected, and long-term oriented,”
said Guillermo Forteza, Investment Lead, Europe (INC II) at Tenity.
Sjöstedt previously co-founded a €30 million fintech fund investing in early-stage startups across the UK and Nordics.
He has also been active in the Nordic fintech community and has operational experience from his time as Chief of Staff at a scaling health technology company.
“Every time I fly between the UK and Nordics, I meet a founder. The energy here is unmistakable. I’m convinced the next fintech outliers will be built here, and with Tenity we want to back them as a collaborative co-investor while opening doors across the global financial industry,”
Sjöstedt said.
