With absolute revenue growth of 723 percent in the last year, Readly ranks in the top layer of the overall list at 186th place and sits alongside businesses such as Deliveroo, Hellofresh and VIRTUS.

The complete report "FT 1000: Europe’s Fastest Growing Companies" to be published on March 25th 2019 ranks Readly as the second fastest growing Swedish company and the 7th fastest growing company in the media category.

There’s been plenty of talk about digital film-and music services these past years, so I’m pleased to see the top listings going to digital services that push for written, curated content and the development of this as the industry moves forward.”
