Swiss cybersecurity startup Saporo has raised €7 million in Series A funding, led by TIN Capital with participation from G+D Ventures, CDP Venture Capital through its Corporate Partners I – ServiceTech fund, XAnge, Lightbird VC, and Session VC. The funding will support product automation, expansion into multi-cloud and developer ecosystems, and growth across Europe with selective U.S. expansion.

Founded in 2021, Saporo has achieved remarkable growth, recently being recognized as Switzerland’s fastest-growing startup, with 100% year-on-year growth since its seed round. The company plans to use the funding to scale its R&D, sales, and marketing teams in 2026, supported by internal AI tools that have increased engineering productivity by 30–40%.

The Series A funding positions Saporo to strengthen its presence across Europe, accelerate product innovation, and continue addressing the growing market need for identity security solutions in regulated and enterprise sectors.
