  "account": "Sweden's top-funded technology companies reached a total of €2.8 billion in the first half of 2026, with a few large transactions accounting for the majority of the funding. Stegra, an industrial decarbonisation firm, led the funding round with €1.4 billion, representing nearly half of the total capital raised. Legora, a legaltech company, raised €600 million in two transactions, while Polestar, an electric vehicle manufacturer, secured €400 million in equity financing. Other notable recipients included Einride, a transportation company, and Funnel, a marketing intelligence firm. Cleantech, legaltech and transportation were the leading sectors in terms of funding, with cleantech leading with €1.48 billion, primarily due to Stegra's financing. Software saw the highest number of transactions, but the funding was spread across smaller, early-stage rounds. Despite the dominance of large rounds, early-stage investment remained widespread across various technology sectors.",
