Senior Product Designer

Small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) are the backbone of the economy. Worldwide they account for more than 50% of the GDP and workforce. Yet, they are underserved by the financial industry. In the past three years, more than half of Swedish SMEs have applied for financing despite tedious processes and high decline rates. In Sweden, a mature market with tons of high quality data available, every tenth SME still lists access to financing as their single biggest hurdle for growth.

Traditional banks have prioritized bigger enterprises whilst being stuck in legacy IT systems. Digital challengers have set their sights on smaller businesses, but often at the expense of transparency and fair conditions. 

At Capcito we decided to do something about it, with a transparent and fair service that helps businesses when they need it the most. Why? Because for us it’s real simple: an engine without fuel won’t run – and neither will a world without small businesses.

Trots att företagare utgör ryggraden i vår ekonomi så förbises dom ofta  när det kommer till finansiering. Som entreprenörer har vi själva fått  kämpa oss genom krångliga avtal, förlegade bedömningar och generell  ovilja, bara för att landa i en inflexibel eller till och med oschysst  kredit. Till slut bestämde vi oss för att göra något åt saken med en ny  tjänst som stöttar företagare när de behöver det som mest. 

Faktum  är att vi på Capcito är först i Sverige med att använda smart teknik och  realtidsdata för att erbjuda företagare lite schysstare finansiering.  Och för att kunna fortsätta leda vägen letar vi alltid efter personer  som kan hjälpa oss att hjälpa ännu fler företagare att förverkliga  drömmar, ta sig genom svackor och sova lite bättre om natten.
