Together with its subscribers, Nextory shares a great passion for literature of all kinds and strives to be an independent and natural place where everyone can easily find their next story. This goes hand-in-hand with the vision to increase reading around the world to enrich people’s lives and thereby contribute to increased well-being, personal development, and a strengthened democracy.

Today, Nextory’s catalogue contains over 900 000 titles, and the app is available in ten markets around Europe with headquarters in Stockholm.

This company visit and workshop is co-created with Founders Group 29.
