GP Bullhound advises the mobile gaming sensation LeoVegas on its expansion capital round

GP Bullhound, the technology investment bank, has acted as the exclusive financial advisor to LeoVegas, a category leader in mobile casino gaming, on its expansion financing round. The round saw participation from new as well as existing investors and included a number of Super Angels with a broad background within technology investing. This round of financing will enable the Company to accelerate the European roll-out of its offering while also cementing its leadership position in the Nordic region.

LeoVegas has proved to be a true mCommerce sensation. As the front runner in mobile casino gaming LeoVegas has grown from zero in January 2012 to now generating over €1 million in weekly deposits. The Company has become the leading mobile casino gaming operator with a unique edge based on its superior user interface, technology team and dedicated focus on innovation on the mobile platform.

"At GP Bullhound we are passionate about entrepreneurship. With LeoVegas, it is a pleasure to be both an acting advisor as well as an investor to such a tremendous founding management team. I expect this will not be the last announcement on LeoVegas that we make", says GP Bullhound's Managing Partner Per Roman.

This represents the completion of GP Bullhound’s 19th transaction in the last twelve months and further reinforces our commitment to supporting the entrepreneurs and companies with great ideas.
