FundedByMe launches in Malmö - event in partnership with Uber
FundedByMe and Uber have both taken traditional industries and turned them upside down – Uber within the taxi transport area and FundedByMe within finance. Now the two brands combine with one stunning event in Malmö to launch both services in Malmö with ‘Världens Bästa After Work’ at Media Evolution City on Friday 18 March 2016.
The theme for this event is “Moving You Forward” and attendance is free via this link: events.fundedbyme.com/movingyouforward/
FundedByMe will host an hour of pitching and crowdfunding aimed at 150 guests starting at 16:00 with the big event, targeting up to 1,000 guests, starting at 17:00.
The move to launch FundedByMe Malmö is a natural one for FundedByMe, which first launched its crowdfunding services in 2011. “We have tremendous traction in Stockholm and Helsinki where we have representation,” says COO Pontus Frohde. “We know that the entrepreneurship trend in Skåne is very much alive and kicking and we want to help entrepreneurs who may have gotten a ‘NO’ from banks find financing the modern way by partnering with the leading brands in Malmö and Gothenburg.”
“According to Företagarna, four in five jobs in Sweden are created by entrepreneurs and it’s time for entrepreneurs in Malmö to get the support they need,” Frohde concludes.
