The Voima Ventures team keeps on growing! The newest addition to the team is Sofia Wahlroos, in the role of Marketing Manager. Sofia will be taking over from Julia Ehrnrooth, who departs as Marketing Manager at the end of March.
In her new role, Sofia is in charge of Voima Ventures marketing and communications. In addition, she will be working with both ESG matters and fundraising, as well as assisting portfolio companies in their own marketing and talent recruitment efforts. Sofia has a diverse background in marketing and event management, and has formerly worked with VC marketing and fundraising at Inventure. She aims to strengthen Voima Ventures brand as the top deep tech VC in the Nordics, as well as provide extensive marketing support to the portfolio companies.
“I’m delighted to be working with such an intriguing brand, and can’t wait to help Voima Ventures conquer the Nordics. It really is a privilege to be working with such innovative deep-tech entrepreneurs, and I intend to help them market and sell their unique visions to the best of my abilities. Many of these technologies are crucial in combating climate change or in battling rare diseases, and hopefully, I’ll be able to help them succeed in their missions”, explains Sofia.
“We are thrilled to have Sofia joining the Voima Ventures family and helping us grow to the next level on a Nordic and Baltic scale. Voima Ventures’ purpose driven investment thesis and mission to scale solutions from science is, in today’s environment, more topical than ever”, says Inka Mero, Managing Partner of Voima Ventures. “Europe needs to double down in technology play and science to solve the future of energy, food and supply in other critical areas. I can can proudly say that we continue working on the mission of helping scientific founders grow deep tech companies on a global scale. I would also like to thank Julia for her fantastic contribution, and we hope to work with her in the future as well.”
Sofia started her work on the 1st of March, and works in parallel with Julia until the end of March. Feel free to get in touch at sofia.wahlroos@voimaventures.com or 0400158640.
