The exact volume of Enna's financing round was not disclosed. However, it is known that Wayra Germany alone is contributing €350,000. Founded in 2020 by Jakob Bergmeier, Tim Haug, and Moritz Kutschera, the startup enables video chats via a plastic card. Enna also allows users to receive photo and video messages, share photo albums, listen to podcasts, and watch YouTube videos. The operating concept is intended to make it easier for seniors to access online services and stay in touch with their families. To use it, you need any Apple or Android tablet running the corresponding app, as well as suitable cards and the Enna dock.
“We see it as our mission to build a bridge across the digital divide with Enna.”
"We are very proud and happy that we were able to successfully complete our seed round and have such strong new partners on board for the future. The lack of digital participation in our society is a very relevant problem that we want to solve with Enna,"
says Jakob Bergmeier, co-founder of Enna.
"I built my first prototype for my grandmother back in 2016. The fact that this has developed into a company together with Moritz and Tim since 2020 makes me particularly proud. The trust investors have placed in us shows us that we are on the right track. We see it as our mission to build a bridge across the digital divide with Enna and look forward to the future."
Katrin Bacic, Chief Strategy Officer of Wayra Germany, explained:
"The pandemic in particular has shown us how important it is to be connected. But this is often not possible for older people because they are not familiar with technology. Applications like Enna are promising precisely because they involve everyone and promote connections."
