PVcase is a developer of software for solar power plants. The series A round raised EUR 20 million. Venture capital funds Practica Capital and Contrarian Ventures, which had previously invested in the company, also participated in this round of funding.

With his knowledge and connections, he will help the Lithuanian startup to establish itself in the US market.”
