Spotwise.ai
Spotwise.ai is a Riga-based B2B SaaS company that automates competitive radio advertising intelligence for broadcaster sales and ad-ops teams. Its system continuously monitors hundreds of terrestrial and digital radio streams, uses audio fingerprinting and ASR to detect and transcribe every ad break, identifies the advertiser and creative, and then pushes the resulting 'who is advertising on my competitor' feed into CRM and lead-routing workflows that the broadcaster's sales team can actually action. The product is explicitly built for multilingual European markets where a single media group may operate stations in four or five languages, which is a harder technical setup than the US-centric incumbents handle well. For Baltic and CEE broadcasters, Spotwise is one of the few tools that turns ad monitoring from a manual panel-listening exercise into a live competitive-intel feed, and the company sits in the broader category of AI-enabled sales intelligence products coming out of the Riga ecosystem.

Spyke Games
Spyke Games is an Istanbul-based mobile gaming studio that raised one of the largest seed rounds in European gaming history — roughly USD 55 million in 2022, led by Griffin Gaming Partners, Index Ventures, and Makers Fund — on the strength of its founding team's track record in casual and social gaming. The studio focuses on multiplayer social casual titles with deep live-ops loops and player-to-player interaction as a retention driver, and is part of the generation of second-wave Turkish mobile studios (alongside Dream Games and Spyke Labs alumni) trying to turn the country's engineering depth and low-cost production into a durable mobile entertainment cluster. For the directory, Spyke represents the next chapter of Turkish mobile gaming following the Peak Games / Zynga exit, and a data point on how extensively Turkish founders have now captured international venture appetite for casual gaming.

Stegra
Stegra (formerly H2 Green Steel) is one of Europe’s most ambitious industrial decarbonization projects, aiming to rebuild steelmaking around renewable energy and green hydrogen. The company is building a fully integrated production campus in Boden, northern Sweden, where abundant hydropower and regional mining supply chains converge. The core innovation is the direct-reduction process: instead of using coal to reduce iron ore, Stegra uses green hydrogen, cutting CO2 emissions by roughly 95% compared with blast-furnace steel. That technical shift is the foundation for a new European supply of low-carbon steel, which is increasingly demanded by automakers, construction firms, and consumer brands. The company rebranded to Stegra in September 2024 to signal that it is more than a steel mill. Its long-term platform vision is to combine renewable power, hydrogen production, and mineral processing into a repeatable template for heavy industry. By 2026, the Boden plant is reported to be more than halfway constructed, with gigascale electrolyzers (supplied by Thyssenkrupp Nucera) being installed and key offtake contracts signed. Customers reportedly include Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, Scania, and IKEA, and more than half of initial output has been pre-sold — a strong indicator that the “green premium” market is real. Stegra’s financing structure is as notable as its technology. Rather than relying solely on venture capital, the company blends project-finance debt with growth equity, totaling more than €6.5 billion in commitments. This makes it one of the largest private industrial raises in Europe and a flagship case for climate infrastructure funding. Its origins are tied to Vargas Holding, a Swedish venture-builder that also co-founded Northvolt and Polarium, acting as an institutional co-founder rather than a conventional accelerator. Early support from EIT InnoEnergy helped validate the project at the EU level. Stegra’s investor roster reflects its strategic importance: Altor Equity Partners, GIC, Just Climate, Temasek, and Porsche SE are among its backers. In 2026, Stegra represents the “Northvolt effect” done right: a proof that Europe can re-industrialize around clean energy and keep advanced manufacturing on the continent. If it succeeds, it will be a template for decarbonizing other hard-to-abate sectors, from cement to fertilizers, and a cornerstone of Europe’s green-industry competitiveness.

Stelovo
Stelovo is a small consumer app for planning nights out with friends — you propose a few time slots, everyone votes, and the app picks the moment that works for the group.

The project ships as a lightweight web app under a single-founder or small-team indie model.
