Wrapping up Almedalsveckan as the winner of "Growth Company of the Year"!
Every year, businesses and politicians gather during Almedalsveckan in Visby, Sweden, to engage in deep discussions. This year, a competition was also arranged by Techarenan to crown the top startups across the Nordics.
It was an honor for Tandem Health to first be chosen among >500 companies across the Nordics to be one of the 24 finalists, and to then also among this group of talented entrepreneurs win the grand price after multiple days of pitching by our CEO Lukas Saari.
The jury was searching for a company solving an important issue with strong market traction. They highlighted Tandem’s critical mission to reduce administrative burdens in healthcare and our proven ability to execute swiftly in an industry often challenging to penetrate.
"I see this as a wonderful testament to how far our team has gotten in a short period of time. Being founded less than a year ago, it's inspiring that Tandem was considered for the “Growth Company of the Year” award rather than “Startup of the Year”, says Lukas Saari.
In addition to participating in the competition, Tandem's co-founders Lukas Saari and Oscar Boldt-Christmas also got the opportunity to meet many of Sweden's largest healthcare organizations to discuss their challenges and how Tandem can support them to reduce their administrative burden. It was great to through these discussions also meet many of our users, and hear the impact Tandem is making in their everyday life.
