Node.vc

Investment decisions are led by Managing Partner John Elvesjö and the partnership group, which includes Daniela Sjunnesson, Henrik Tellving, Mårten Skogö, and Andy Johnston. Investment Principal Rebecca Sjödin and the broader investment team contribute to sourcing and due diligence. The firm presents itself as a collective of operators who make decisions drawing on their own company-building experience.

Node.vc explicitly ties its sourcing advantage to the operating backgrounds of its partners and an extensive network of Nordic tech entrepreneurs. Because several partners have built and exited companies in the region, the firm asserts it sees opportunities through founder referrals that may not reach purely financial VCs. It also lists a Venture Partner in Finland to expand reach across the Nordics.

Node.vc is structured as a traditional early-stage venture capital firm, not a family office. It was founded in 2023 by a group of former operators and entrepreneurs and invests out of a fund structure that backs external startups.

The firm's public communications describe only direct investments into early-stage companies. There is no public indication that Node.vc makes fund-of-fund commitments or participates as a limited partner in other venture funds.

Node.vc targets pre-seed and seed-stage startups. Its portfolio consists of companies that are early in their lifecycle, often pre-revenue or in the initial commercialization phase, consistent with an operator-led approach to company building from the earliest days.

Node.vc describes itself as sector-agnostic and has invested across AI infrastructure, climate tech, automotive logistics, telecom, and creative gaming. It has not publicly excluded any specific sector, though its disclosed portfolio suggests it avoids heavily regulated industries that do not fit an early-stage software or hardware disruption model.

Node.vc regularly co-invests alongside larger strategic and financial investors. For instance, it backed Telgea alongside Telenor in 2026. The firm leverages its operator network and early-stage focus to complement later-stage or corporate-led rounds rather than leading them alone.
