Upgraded People expands and steps outside Sweden’s borders

After 13 fast-paced and successful years in Sweden, it is time for Upgraded People to expand once again and now for the first time take the step outside Sweden’s borders. First up is Denmark, where we will open an office in Copenhagen this fall. 

Our journey started in 2010 and we have since grown at a rapid pace. Today we have offices in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö, Jönköping and Linköping from where we place consultants for assignments throughout the country – from Luleå in the North to Malmö in the South.

Now it is time to take the next step and establish ourselves on the international playing field, which is an incredible milestone for us as a company. The step across the strait and the establishment in Denmark has already started stealthily. From our office in Malmö, we have placed consultancy assignments in the Copenhagen area during Q2 and this autumn we will open the first Danish office in the heart of Copenhagen.

– We have seen an enormous increase when it comes to networks and establishment in southern Sweden after we entered into agreements with, among others, Region Skåne and Lund University. This has meant that we have invested further in southern Sweden and are now moving on to the Danish side, says Linda Sundlöf, COO at Upgraded People.

With over ten years in the industry in Sweden, we now have the foundation and experience we believe will be required to enter the Danish market. We know that there are many differences between the Swedish and Danish IT consulting markets, and especially when it comes to subconsultants and freelancers. This is something we look forward to getting to know even more and which we are curious about and ready to be a part of. We have an exciting time ahead of us. 

– We are happy and proud to be able to take this step. Something that is of course a clear acknowledgement of and an effect of our strong growth in recent years, says Linda Sundlöf.
