History
[edit]Following the acquisition of Cinnober in 2018, Vermiculus was founded in Stockholm by former employees and former CEO Nils-Robert Persson. The company's first client signed with Persson despite there being no registered business, office or staff; shortly afterwards, 26 former Cinnober employees joined the newly founded company.[7] Among the first employees is Taraneh Derayati, who was appointed CEO in 2020.[10] In November 2024, a second office was established in Umeå.[11]
L4 Venture Builder, B3's corporate venture capital fund, announced a US$5.5 million investment for a 10% stake on March 14, 2023.[12] In 2025, employees became the majority shareholders of the company, as part of a programme to distribute 80% of the company's shares to its employees.[9][12][7]
