Seier Capital family office of the co-founder of the Danish investment bank Saxo Bank Lars Christensen issued two grants to Ukrainian startups Bank of Memories and DjookyX.
Seier Capital did not disclose the exact size of the grants, but it could range from 5,000 to $50,000.
Both agreements were finalized in January 2023, but they became known only now.

Including fresh funding, Seier Capital has provided about ten grants to Ukrainian and international blockchain startups under a €10 million grant program. It assumes that the project will receive funds and integrate with the Concordium blockchain.
