The importance of finding the right investors
» It has been essential to find investors who bring more than money to the table. From day one it has been clear that Wedio must operate within the international market and our investors must support that «
Here comes a small brief of our new investors:
The entire founder-team of Gaest.com
Gaest.com went through the same process as us, where they took a two-sided marketplace (in their case it was conference rooms) and scaled it to multiple countries, using the same kind of regional partner model we are using, before getting acquired by Airbnb. We are ecstatic to be able to tap into their fount of knowledge regarding the marketplace domain, as well as their experience in rapid scaling. Welcome to Christian Schwarz Lausten, Anders Boelskifte Mogensen, Jonas Grau and Chris Kjær Sørensen.
Mads H Dalsgaard
Mads has been the CEO of a global shipping company, and has extensive experience and an expansive network in the delivery domain. As former CEO he is also able to help us with finance, KPI metrics and negotiation.
Torben Falck

Early advisor, turned early, active investor, with many years of experience in software architecture, he has been a great asset in helping us make decisions regarding our overall architecture. as well as early strategic sparring.

We are currently halfway through the program in Amsterdam and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome so far.
