Turning Point: Two founders turned bankruptcy into growth with their startup venture Likvido


Nearly one in five (18%) of Europe’s small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) say that late payments threaten the survival of their business, according to Intrum’s 2019 European Payment Report.

Likvido.com, co-founded in March 2018 by Maximilian Frimmer and Lars Holdgaard, offers #SMEs an inverse management system which “connects the dots” between their accounting systems, Frimmer tells FinTech Futures. The start-up recently secured a €2.5 million seed investment from Paris-based investor, BlackFin.
