sqore-logoSqore, a Stockholm, Sweden-based edtech startup, raised $3.5m in venture capital funding.

The investment was made by Northzone, early backers of Spotify, Avito, and iZettle.

The company intends to use the funds for product development and creation of a dedicated sales unit.

Clients include IBM, Shell, IKEA, Morgan Stanley, KPMG, The Economist Group, and Bertelsmann.
