With a pipeline valued at over 200msek (in annual recurring revenue), having signed clients in both US and Europe, the rapidly growing software company has taken in 5 million euro mainly supported from their two largest shareholders Industrifonden and Viltor (JCE Group).

The unprecedented pace of growth the last few months has prompted it to restructure its executive team to effectively manage its expanding operations, with two of the original founders behind both Telness and Telness Tech, swapping operational roles.

Founder Jonas Cedenwing becoming Chief Operating Officer, leading the charge in the company's international expansion across new continents and Martina Klingvall becoming CEO of Telness Tech.

Jonas Cedenwing, Founder and incoming Chief Operations Officer: "The pace of our growth has been extraordinary, it registered our US company in December and signed our first two US clients in February. That’s a good start on 2024. It's imperative that we scale up rapidly to meet the demands of our expanding client base. As I focus all my time on our new international clients in this unprecedented growth, scaling our organization accordingly, Martina will oversee managing the leadership team and reporting to the board.”

Martina Klingvall, Founder and incoming CEO of Telness Tech, stated, "With our current growth trajectory, it's essential to have our top talent closely involved in the execution of our operations. As CEO, I will focus on managing the leadership team, while Jonas will lead critical technical aspects and operations, ensuring that our momentum remains as we rapidly enter new markets. We can’t wait to tell you more soon.
