Last update:

Stockholm-based Telness Tech, a software company for the telecommunications industry, announced on Wednesday, that it has raised €5M from its two largest shareholders — Industrifonden and Viltor (JCE Group).

The Swedish company will use the funds to accelerate international expansion. 

Besides funding, the company has swapped operational founder roles.

Telness Tech says it has been experiencing unprecedented growth in the last few months, leading to the restructuring of its executive team. 

Two of the founders of Telness and Telness Tech have swapped operational roles to effectively manage the company’s expanding operations. 

Jonas Cedenwing, the company’s founder, has taken on the role of Chief Operating Officer and will lead the charge in the company’s international expansion across new continents. 

Jonas Cedenwing says, “The pace of our growth has been extraordinary, we registered our US company in December and signed our first two US clients in February. That’s a good start in 2024. We must scale up rapidly to meet the demands of our expanding client base. As I focus all my time on our new international clients in this unprecedented growth, scaling our organisation accordingly, Martina will oversee managing the leadership team and reporting to the board.” 

Martina Klingvall, the other founder, has become the CEO of Telness Tech.

Martina Klingvall says, “With our current growth trajectory, it’s essential to have our top talent closely involved in the execution of our operations. As CEO, I will focus on managing the leadership team, while Jonas will lead critical technical aspects and operations, ensuring that our momentum remains as we rapidly enter new markets. We can’t wait to tell you more soon.
