History
Funnel was founded in 2014 by Per Made and Fredrik Skantze, who were also behind the Facebook advertising tool Qwaya[2]. With their main office in Stockholm, Sweden, the company opened a second location in Boston, Massachussets in 2016[3] to better service the US-market.
In 2017, Funnel raised €8.3 million ($10 million) Series A funding in a funding round led by Balderton Capital[4]. Suranga Chandratillake also joined the board of the Stockholm-based business as part of that fundraising.
In January 2020, the company raised €42.6 million ($47 million) in Venture capital financing[5][6] to continue product development and customer growth[7]. One year later, the company announced it closed a new, €57.1 million ($66 million) pre-Initial public offering funding round[8][9].
