Through the partnership, Swedbank invites business customers to draft, negotiate, sign and store contracts online on the Avokaado platform that reduces time spent on working with documents from hours to minutes.
Founder of Avokaado, Mariana Hagström, said that there is a race to diversify the range of services to clients and large companies are constantly looking to provide access to new and innovative solutions.
„There are real benefits to be gained in productivity through technology in smart contract creation. The bulk of work with legal documents, previously done manually, can now be easily turned into data-driven highly automated digital processes. Together with Swedbank, we advance the spread of technology to help increase the productivity of small and medium-sized businesses,“ commented Hagström.

Launched in 2016, the Avokaado platform is used by companies in the Baltics, Finland, Norway, Poland, Belgium, and Luxembourg.
