The e-sports market is growing rapidly, and major tournaments attract high viewership, with prize money on the same scale as “traditional” sports. Many players currently suffer from injuries related to the computer mouse and perform worse due to high friction against the desk and a lack of stability. With the Flashe Gaming Glove, you never have to worry about that again. It features a built-in arm and wrist support, and its underside is completely covered in Teflon, meaning you can move it faster, easier, and with greater precision. Furthermore, it is patent-pending. <\/p>\n
In addition to LiU Invest, the consortium that has invested in Flashe consists of business angels and business angel funds from various networks in Link\u00f6ping, Uppsala, and V\u00e4ster\u00e5s, among other locations. <\/p>\n
– In this investment, LiU Invest has acted as a catalyst to secure an early-stage investment, says Jonas Nilsson, LiU Invest. All investors come from the networks we have built within the LiU Holding Group. Being able to catalyze early private investment capital is an important task for us. <\/p>\n
Flashe was founded by Oskar \u00d6dmark, who himself has a background as a so-called gamer.<\/p>\n
– With the help of LiU Invest’s extensive network, I have been able to reach out and connect with relevant investors, instead of making “cold calls,” says Oskar \u00d6dmark. This has allowed me to optimize my time, and in conjunction with the investment round, I have also been able to focus heavily on growing the company. To achieve this, during the investment round, I worked on online sales and signed distribution agreements. Currently, the gaming glove and gaming sleeve are available at major retailers such as Cdon, Inet, Maxgaming, and hopefully many more in the near future. In addition, I have also launched a new successful crowdfunding campaign for the new product, Xdapter. This product will also be available online and at retailers before summer. <\/p>\n
