Exits
Companies Hard2beat backed that were sold or listed, or where a new investor bought out the earlier ones. Each links to its announcement.
No exits on record.
How this list is made
- A round is listed when a company, investor or press announcement, or a startup database, names Hard2beat among its investors. Each listed round links to its announcement where one is on record.
- Amounts are the size of the whole round, not the part Hard2beat invested. Amounts are in euros, converted at about 1.10 US dollars to the euro.
- Stages follow the funding reports: the label the company announced, placed by size where the label clearly does not fit.
- Rounds that were never announced, or that do not name their investors, are not here, so the list is a floor.
Countries our record covers: Poland, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Czechia, Slovakia, Romania, Ukraine, Hungary, Bulgaria, Croatia, Slovenia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, North Macedonia, Albania, Montenegro, Kosovo, Moldova, Finland (from 2026), Sweden (from 2026), Norway (from 2026), Denmark (from 2026), Iceland (from 2026). Rounds elsewhere are listed when public sources name Hard2beat.
The whole market, country by country: startup funding reports. Next update: January 2027.
