Skype is not Swedish. It was developed in Estonia and incorporated in Luxembourg.


True, though it was founded by a Swede and a Dane (and with some of its initial capital being from Sweden).

But I partly agree, saying it's a Swedish company is a stretch.


One of the founders is Swedish. Therefore the Skype exit increased the supply of VC money in Sweden (through Atomico), which was my point.
