Herbox nominated for Startup of the Year

During the Trollhättan Business Awards on February 2, Innovatum Science Park will present the Startup of the Year award in Trollhättan. Herbox is one of three nominated companies.

Through their rapid expansion, childhood friends Hanna Lauste and Linn Rosenqvist have created change for hundreds of thousands of women across Europe.

The vision of the Herbox founders is to contribute to a new standard where feminine protection is as accessible as toilet paper. By the end of the year, their boxes of free sanitary pads were in 4000+ toilets!

In 2023, the team has won tenders with no less than 30 municipalities, signed up the Swedish Football Association as a customer, attracted a lot of media attention and expanded to Finland, the Netherlands, Denmark and Norway.

Herbox, which has been part of Innovatum Science Park's incubator since its inception in 2021, has managed to multiply its turnover from the previous year and grow its team to 10 people.
