About Propel Capital pre-seed investment

Propel Capital is the investment arm of Sting, and it is how Sting companies receive pre-seed capital. It invests on a rolling basis rather than in batches, and its current fund is Propel Capital VII.

What you get

  • A first part of the investment as a convertible note, paid up front
  • A second part co-invested as equity in your next funding round, as part of the standard ticket
  • Sting Core, if you join it, carries a fee paid as a warrant, on top of the investment

Who can apply

  • Companies headquartered in Sweden
  • Companies that are Sting companies, since Propel invests exclusively in them
  • Pre-seed companies, as the site describes its focus

How selection works: Sting says only about 6% of applicants make it through its selection process. From first contact to a signed investment agreement typically takes four to six weeks.

How to apply: Send your pitch deck through the form on Propel Capital's website.
