Yuncture invests in GuineaPig - contributes to a healthy lifestyle!
Yuncture Invest makes its seventh investment, now in the wellness company GuineaPig. The company has developed an app that helps businesses create a healthier and more engaged workplace through digital wellness activities.
GuineaPig was founded in 2018 and is run by Anton Bolmstedt Svanqvist and Elias Stråvik, who have backgrounds in both training and IT development. By being integrated into existing platforms such as Slack and Microsoft Teams, GuineaPig enables maximum accessibility, a social component, and high engagement. Currently, the company has thousands of users and several paying corporate customers in the Nordic countries, Australia, the United States, and more.
In addition to Yuncture, Thomas Andersson, Pierre Lindmark (CEO and co-founder of Winningtemp), and Chalmers Ventures also invest. With the new capital, CEO and co-founder Anton Bolmstedt Svanqvist hopes to take the company to the next level, both in terms of product development and commercialization.
"We want to be the obvious choice for businesses that demand tools that contribute to improved work-life balance for their employees. We will achieve this through a global market presence, as well as a product with world-class content and functionality. With the new capital, we expect to take further steps towards this vision."
Eric Nilsson, Head of Incubator Yuncture
"We have been following GuineaPig since the company participated in our incubator program in the autumn of 2020. Already then, we had a positive impression of the founders Anton and Elias. After the incubation period, we have seen that the company has continued to develop well. Now it is time to scale up and capitalize on the opportunities that major trends, such as health and remote work, entail. It is particularly exciting to support companies that have gone through our incubator program."
