Timbeter nominated for Future Unicorn Award 2023

Running for the sixth year in a row, the Future Unicorn Award celebrates scale-ups from across Europe that have the potential to become the bloc’s future tech giants. The shortlist is compiled in collaboration with DIGITALEUROPE’s national trade associations, representing the digital and technology sector in 29 European countries. The winner will be announced on 8 March at Masters of Digital, DIGITALEUROPE’s annual flagship conference, by Mariya Gabriel, European Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth.

Timbeter’s digital solution is changing the forestry sector by enabling sustainable forest management, increasing the safety of employees, maximizing the value of each log, helping to optimize logistics and guaranteeing fair trades. Also, it helps with monitoring and controlling the timber supply chain, supporting governments and law enforcement agencies to prevent illegal logging and keep a better overview on the volumes harvested.

Anna-Greta Tsahkna, CEO of Timbeter, stated: “Being one of the Future Unicorn Award 2023 nominees is great recognition to our team. Working with organizations across all the continents proves that our solution solves universal challenges related to transparency, traceability, efficiency and accountability in the forestry sector. The one thing we owe our success to is dedication on R&D and trust of our investors for seeing a long-term perspective. It is fascinating to witness how the regulators and very traditional forest industry is slowly indicating interest for more transparent, traceable and accurate forest information. Climate policy being an important driver here. We strongly believe that digital transformation and harnessing innovative technology in the forestry industry is 100% required for a more sustainable future.”

Cecilia Bonefeld-Dahl, Director-General of DIGITALEUROPE, said: “Today, only 12% of the world’s unicorns are European. This is far from enough, at a time when Europe seeks to assert its global competitive edge. This year’s impressive shortlist of the most brilliant scale-ups represent critical sectors from energy and green tech to cyber security. They clearly reflect Europe’s most burning challenges and the power of European innovators to deliver solutions.”
