The Swedish Minister of Commerce Annie Lööf meets with Erik Fjellborg, CEO of Quinyx, to discuss how to facilitate growth and competitiveness in future Swedish businesses.

Annie Lööf, the Swedish Minister of Commerce, and some of her colleagues from the Ministry of Commerce made a personal visit with the young and fast growing IT company Quinyx. In a meeting with Erik Fjellborg, CEO and Founder of Quinyx, they discussed how the Swedish Ministry of Commerce could help fast growing Swedish companies increase their competitiveness by creating world-class business.

Afterwards Annie Lööf and her colleagues were given a demonstration of Quinyx WFM (Workforce Management), a web-based staff planning and time & attendance application that quickly made Quinyx the Nordic market leader within their industry. Annie Lööf also had the opportunity to try the application and she could easily plan and create work schedules in Quinyx WFM.

- It’s very exciting and interesting to meet companies like Quinyx, where one can see where innovation and modern thinking can take a company. There are companies like Quinyx that will be an important part of Sweden’s continued success and that will create additional jobs. We in the government are actively working on how to improve job security, reduce costs and facilitate learning new skills as well as creating better conditions for increased competitiveness in Swedish companies, says Annie Lööf.

- We are proud and very pleased that the Minister took the time to visit us at Quinyx and to have the opportunity to discuss how we see the current possibilities and obstacles in running a successful and competitive business. We are now looking forward to an international expansion and all the support we can get from the Ministry of Commerce is valuable to us, says Erik Fjellborg.
