Mediterranean Algae — Pre-seed · €150K

The company closed its first round, a €150,000 pre-seed led by the Alicante/Murcia-based investment vehicle Vincle Capital with participation from local companies and private investors, to fund growth and new products; sources date it only to 'autumn 2022' (Vincle Capital published its own announcement on 13 January 2023), so the month above is approximate. Separately in 2022 the startup raised money through non-round channels not counted here: a Verkami consumer crowdfunding campaign in March 2022 for its Siwid serum, a €20,000 Injuve Young Entrepreneurs award in November 2022, and a Rotary Club Puerto de Alicante microcredit.
