Pan-European technology investor 3TS Capital Partners led the funding round in collaboration with Nexit Ventures. Existing investors, including Trind Ventures, Aikainen Ventures, Business Finland and several respected angel investors, demonstrated continued confidence in Boksi’s growth trajectory by participating in the round. Investors were drawn to Boksi’s innovative solutions that have been reshaping the influencer marketing industry. Investors cited the platform’s impressive track record of driving tangible results for businesses and its commitment to advancing influencer marketing and content creation through technology.

With this funding Boksi is planning to capture the Central European market. In a strategic move that further underscores Boksi’s expansion strategy, the company recently completed the acquisition of Finnish influencer marketing agency, Monochrome Oy. As part of the expansion strategy Boksi is looking for potential acquisition targets in Germany to fast track growth in the region. With a strengthened foothold in Finland and strategic sights set on the German market, Boksi is poised to make waves in the European creator economy.

"We’ve built a platform that improves the efficiency of working with the creator economy tremendously. Now with this new funding we are able to accelerate our expansion efforts to Central Europe with the next big focus being Germany and the DACH region. We see a huge potential in the region," said Lasse Laaksonen, CEO of Boksi

Trind Ventures first invested in Boksi in 2019 as a lead investor. Since then, we have continued to support the company through subsequent investment rounds, and we are thrilled to be part of the round once again. We warmly welcome new investors to join us on this incredible journey with Boksi.

"With the influencer marketing landscape expanding rapidly, it’s the technology-forward players, like Boksi, who have the competitive edge and are poised to dominate the market, " commented Pekka Mäki, Managing Partner at 3TS Capital Partners.

Sami Karppinen, Partner at Nexit Ventures said "Brands are actively looking to harness the potential of the long tail of content creators, which enables more focused marketing activities and deeper brand awareness. Boksi has been instrumental in helping brands with these steps, and we are excited to partner with Lasse and the Boksi team for their next phase of growth."

Boksi is a creator economy startup founded in 2018 in Helsinki, Finland by Lasse Laaksonen, Linus Lindgård, Dan Lindholm, and Tomer Atzmon. Boksi has developed an online platform for influencer marketing and content creation that bridges the gap between brands and creators.
