Storegate AB starts a new cloud company that will revolutionize the way you save your personal information. A new Swedish cloud company was recently launched – ToKeep AB. ToKeep’s business idea is to give its customers control over important personal information by collecting and saving everything in one place, completely automatically.
Storegate AB and the founders of Storegate, Matz Karlsson and Bertil Hedén, are behind ToKeep. The company, which was registered on February 6, 2019, already has the CEO and first external investor in place.
Patrick Isacson has been appointed as CEO of ToKeep. Patrick has extensive experience in the IT industry and has held a leading position in several entrepreneurial startups, of which the last five years as CEO of NODA Intelligent Systems. In addition, my co-founder Bertil Hedén and I have worked closely with Patrick on several projects and we know that he is the right person for the job,” says Matz Karlsson, CEO of Storegate AB.
The first external investor in ToKeep was Länsförsäkringar Blekinge. Länsförsäkringar Blekinge has set aside capital to invest in local companies with clear scalability and sustainability in the business concept. After reviewing the expressions of interest, ToKeep was selected as the first company to invest in.
“It’s really nice to now be up and running with the venture,” says Matz Karlsson. With Storegate’s increasingly strong focus on the corporate market, a new company was required for this venture in the private market. It’s a brilliant idea and together with our long experience in cloud storage, we have really good conditions to succeed.
The capital raising process is ongoing and we expect the financing for the first phase to be fully in place by August/September 2019, concludes Matz Karlsson.
