Depowise story
The founding story of Estonian FinTech Depowise began in 2021 when the corona pandemic and the chance brought three Estonians together to grant transparency in finance. The meeting of Sven Peekmann, Artur Reiter, and Mait Poska set the stage for a perfect storm.
They shortly figured out that they have an exceptional skill set to build a solution making the financial sector more transparent, trustworthy, and human error free. Sven and Mait are brilliant at turning complicated processes into highly usable IT systems. Artur, backed with financial business knowledge from decades at Bloomberg and other finance giants, just returning back to Estonia, a splendid normal life oasis in the middle of the pandemic chaos.
At the end of 2021, Sven Peekmann, Artur Reiter, and Mait Poska founded Depowise and started developing a one-stop solution to create order in cash flow, oversight and safekeeping. Having the best product in the market, backed by extraordinary talents, and keen on setting high standards, the company is led by the Co-CEO tandem of Sven Peekmann and Artur Reiter. While Sven focuses on product and technology, Artur makes its global business experience work for Depowise.
