U.S.-based Giles Whiting, is a long-time SaaS operator and software investor currently serving as the President at parcelLab and an advisor at Verdane. Previously he served as the COO at Forsta (sold to Press Ganey, 2022), led the Operating Group at SoftBank, and was the General Manager of Medalia (IPO, 2019). Whiting comments: "Clarity and focus are two of the toughest on-going challenges for fast moving companies - and without both of these you're not likely to get much accomplished. NOQX equips companies and managers with tools to simplify, increase focus, and keep individuals and teams aligned! It's a recipe for execution!" 

Additionally, Maria Hedengren and Niklas de Besche are investing. Hedengren has a solid background in the tech industry and has previously been the CFO of iZettle and the CEO of Readly. Currently, she is a Venture Partner at Eight Roads, a global venture capital fund managing assets of $11 billion USD, among other roles. Maria says: "As an operational leader for many years, I always placed great emphasis on goal management as a tool to increase the organization's ability to execute strategy and overarching goals, providing direction and feedback to teams and employees. It's difficult to establish consistent workflows and accountability that are simple and inspiring enough to become a self-playing piano; that's often where goal management fails. NOQX has the potential to solve this incredibly important puzzle piece, and I believe NOQX is the solution that many business leaders are seeking."

Niklas de Besche, former CEO of Meltwater and co-founder of the venture studio Mother, is also an investor and adds: "I seek founders with strong business skills, who can build a strong culture and gather the best team to achieve the company's goals. Sophie and I have worked together for many years, and she definitely meets all those categories!" 

Among the investors is also Aref Abedi, CEO of the SaaS company Jobylon, with operations across Europe: "For me, it was an easy decision to invest in NOQX; you not only need a great platform but also a strong commercial engine, and I know that the team at NOQX has that." 

In addition to the new investors, NOQX's cap table includes Louise Markgren. Louise is the General Counsel at the growth rocket Mentimeter and shares NOQX's vision of changing the way companies work with goal management. 

The team behind NOQX has long felt frustrated with the lack of effective goal management in companies. With this conviction, they are driving NOQX's mission to provide employees worldwide with clarity about their goals. With the recently obtained funding, they look forward to continuing to improve and develop their platform to sell it internationally. The company's long-term goal has always been to establish itself as a global SaaS company with a focus on North America.

"We are winning new customers every week, and we're onto something big! I'm proud of the product we've built, and now we're ready to roll it out internationally," concludes Sophie Hedestad, CEO of NOQX.
