Storegate AB launches new cloud company to revolutionise the way you store your personal information. A new Swedish cloud company was launched today - ToKeep AB. ToKeep's business idea is to give its customers control over important personal information by collecting and storing it all in one place, fully automatically.
ToKeep is owned by Storegate AB and the founders of Storegate, Matz Karlsson and Bertil Hedén. The company, which was registered on 6 February 2019, already has its 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 leadership positions in several entrepreneurial startups, including the last five years as CEO of NODA Intelligent Systems. In addition, my founding colleague 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 allocated capital to invest in local companies with clear scalability and sustainability in their business concept. After reviewing the expressions of interest, ToKeep was selected as the first company to invest in.
It's really nice to be up and running now," says Matz Karlsson. With Storegate's increasing focus on the corporate market, a new company was needed for this venture into the private market. It's a brilliant idea and together with our long experience in cloud storage, we are in a really good position 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.
