Arctic Startups - Finland Close Up

Arctic Startup is a blog for and about Finnish startups. Several startups profiled on the blog were not on our radar yet, so that quickened our interest. An article on whatamap.com suggests there is a niche market, picking up where GoogleMaps leaves off.

And there is news about Apaja, a startup that raised €1.75M from a PE firm specialized in media, Martinson Trigon.

Apaja is the company behind Playray, a games, avatars and community platform, it provides to large-sized Internet publishers. Founded in 2001, it counts Lycos and Ilse Media as recently signed partners.

If Artic Startup's authors keep up the pace of posting, it's definitely one to add to the RSS reader.
