The New Nordic Challengers 2.0 Programme has officially launched in Tallinn, with six promising startups recently receiving investment from Tenity.
This growth programme is designed to support founders aiming to develop innovative fintech solutions and scale their businesses, offering access to Tenity’s global network of mentors, investors, and industry partners.
Andrea Fritschi, CIO of Tenity, remarked,

“What excites us about this cohort is their shared ambition to build solutions for the next era of finance, smarter, more adaptive, and deeply embedded into the real economy. Whether it’s rethinking how we insure, comply, or interpret data, they’re solving pain points. That’s the kind of edge we look for at Tenity, and why we invest early.”
