The initial driver behind Tradeshift's foundation was frustration with available solutions and technology, but soon the company's founders realized that a fundamental shift in the focus of business networks was needed. They aimed to create a new kind of network – one that focused on people and business relationships as well as transactions. On top of electronic invoicing, Tradeshift provides users with a range of revolutionary value added services, such as Instant Payments and CloudScan®.
Tradeshift has offices in San Francisco, Copenhagen and London with customers across 190 countries. Customers include Kuehne + Nagel, TDC and the NHS. Tradeshift was awarded Best Enterprise 2010 at The TechCrunch Europe startup awards.
