I think this sounds silly to say but crowdfunding is a dream coming true to me! When we presented this project almost three years ago to the investors and the group of people involved, we had, on the last page of the agenda: when we reach a certain level, we're gonna go on a crowdfunding campaign to build true ambassadors, people who love the project, so that we can find people to talk about us, because if people are engaged financially and product-wise and in the concept, they're gonna talk about us - they're gonna be our missionaries out, so this is a huge day, and the fact that we can get this going

It's good to finally have the Ministry of Finance's proposal written down on 549 pages, where they clearly take a stand on crowdfunding. The ministry also see community benefits with crowdfunding and wants to strengthen its marketplace, something that is very good for FundedByMe. Of course, the challenge is to see how quickly the proposal can go to referral, taking into account the newly proposed EU regulations. FundedByMe has been self-regulated in the last 5 years and now we can deal with very clear directives. We are very pleased that the report has been presented and it is seen as beneficial for our business.
Daniel Daboczy, CEO and co-founder of FundedByMe.

Johannes Cullberg, founder of the Paradiset Food Market
We originally built FundedByMe to ensure that good entrepreneurs, who are not necessarily stereotypes such as women, would also have access to a stable and healthy source of funding. What drives me forward is mainly when I see that my daughter, despite being born in one of the world's most modernised countries, will not have the same access to capital if she chooses to become an entrepreneur.

We see that women invest more heavily than previously in unlisted companies. By 2016, 22% of investors were women and by 2017, it has grown to be 27% of investors. Our goal is to irrespective of gender, engage all Swedes to look at unlisted companies as the gold mine that could potentially be. For both entrepreneurs and investors, nationally and internationally.

For us, this is really interesting, partly because we stubbornly believe in the digital transformation of health care, but also for the incredibly exciting data collection we can do. When the service scales in terms of users, we will be able to track how the most common diseases are spread and in real time be able to tell how to avoid getting infected. This will provide us with the tools needed for achieving Qurant's vision of reducing sick leave by 50%.
Viktor Lundqvist, CEO and founder of Nordic Tech House
We share the philosophy behind Isabella Löwengrip's Nordic Tech House and have been looking forward to present the first case together. The team behind Qurant operates in a very exciting market with high potential for growth, one that is also in need of innovation. This is the first partnership of many between Nordic Tech House and FundedByMe.
Daniel Daboczy CEO and Founder of FundedByMe
During our years in the industry, we have seen a clear need to change traditional occupational healthcare. Surveys show that sick leave increased during 2017 and more importantly that 40% of it can be avoided through quick access and the right targeted efforts. At the same time, 1.5 million Swedes are without occupational health care. Qurant, Sweden's first innovative digital business health, intends to take a significant part of that market.
Maria Schützer Funk, CEO and founder of Qurant states:
FundedByMe has often used FrontOffice as a success story to show how a smart and dynamic company can use crowdfunding to raising equity. We were part of something unique back in 2016 and we are now once again aiming for something unique in the industry. This feels wonderful and interesting.
Daniel Daboczy, CEO, FundedByMe
We have reached the maximum goal of 20 million SEK and we would like to thank all participants for the enormous interest, dedication and their will to invest in us. We have, of course, created a waiting list for those who didn’t make it in time. Now our work really starts and to show what we can achieve by making FundedByMe a common household name alongside a FundedByMe stock, that the general public can embrace as their own. Further on we have to focus on our international expansion and continue to capture strategic beach fronts with selected partners. This is just the beginning, we feel rejuvenated, with a motivated and hungry team, plus that we feel that we have complete support from our investors. The markets situation is very interesting and we look forward to leading the way in changing the world of finance.
