Scapin is a next-generation virtual spaces platform founded in early 2021 by Joachim Hedenius and Leo Nilsson. The product creates avatar-based virtual spaces that draw heavily from gaming to enable presence, expression, and interactivity for more meaningful online interactions. The company positions itself at the intersection of social, gaming, and digital assets and aims to “put the meaning back into meeting.” Founders bring relevant operator experience: Hedenius is former Kry CTO and Nilsson is former iZettle CPO. Scapin frames its product as a response to rising digital loneliness and heavy time spent on digital interfaces. Financially, the startup has secured a $3.5 million pre-seed funding round.
