Global expansion in 2013 saw opening of office in London

3 February, 2014 - London – Copenhagen – Mojn, an innovator in real time retargeted emails, today announced it has raised $4m in Series A financing. This comes following the launch of its unique email retargeting solution for e-commerce businesses. The funds will be used for continued global expansion following the recent opening of a new office in London.

The $4m deal round was led by Northzone in Copenhagen and London with participation from Notion Capital in London and Zoar Invest in Copenhagen. Northzone was an early investor in TrustPilot, Spotify, Avito and Lastminute.com.

While email as a marketing vehicle for e-commerce companies is driving significant revenue generation, email marketing has not been retargeted on a broad scale even though the performance increase is significant and proven. That is now changing rapidly as Mojn has overcome the technological barriers to create customized emails to eCommerce businesses’ webpage visitors in real time. The solution is cloud-based, simple to implement and fully scalable.

Commenting on the deal, Northzone Ventures’ general partner Gregers Kronborg said, “Northzone is excited to be leading this investment and to be supporting Mojn and its impressive team as they set out to define email retargeting. We see strong potential for Mojn to become the global category winner of performance email targeting.”

Mojn now provides its international customer base with automated banner ad retargeting as well as the novel, yet already proven, email retargeting solutions. Mojn’s business customers include: Kuoni/Apollo, SmartKids, Momondo and Hifi-Klubben.

Carsten Hyldahl, Mojn co-founder, comments; “We are moving into big revenue streams with a unique system that merges advertising, device mapping and marketing. We’ve gathered a set of truly outstanding individuals and personalities - ranging from Ph.D.’s to serial entrepreneurs - and I'm excited by the prospect of being part of a game-changing team."

Founder, Thomas Jensen adds: “Our journey started in 2009 just as the financial crisis took off. So what do you do when you have a fantastic idea - and no money? In our case the help came from Inger Rosenkilde (owner of IMR Holding) who supplied $3 million in seed capital during a period of 5 years. Inger is an emotionally engaged investor whose beliefs, ethics and moral code inform her investment decisions - and this felt appropriate since Mojn is a company with a lot of heart. The wonderful people at Notion Capital and NorthZone are also now on board and we can complete our UK expansion and become a noticeable threat to the range of incumbents with antiquated tech and market models. Our first product - Performance Email Targeting - is delivering unparalleled results for our clients but there's a lot more to come. Indeed, our goal is to push the envelope even further until we’ve made a major impact on the society that surrounds us."

Stephen Chandler, managing partner at Notion Capital, comments; “Less than 5% of email marketing is personalised. Mojn makes it easy to deliver relevant and personalized marketing content to all website visitors and with the results this delivers, we believe they have the potential to build a very big business."
