Sebastien Archambeaud

CEO, Handiscover
We hired Sharp Cookie Advisors to develop our data protection work in the group. They were able to provide professional advice that was also very relevant for our organisation to absorb. Responsible partner Sofia Edvardsen possesses deep knowledge and has relevant experience in dealing with particularly complex issues that span entire organisations. We especially appreciated their solution focus and that they collaborated easily with analysts and developers as well as management teams within our organisation. I also used them as a sounding board and to reconcile strategic issues, which always provided new, valuable insights. Highly recommend them for data protection work!

Carin Wenner

DSO, Bonnier AB
In a growing start-up, things are moving fast and we needed to quickly put in place a customised and qualitative agreement package for our SaaS service, which Sharp Cookie Advisors solved in an excellent way! We especially appreciate the personal and professional advice we have received and would like to take the opportunity to say thanks for the good availability when questions and thoughts arise after the launch of the new agreements. Even our customers appreciate them!

Fabian Haglund

CEO, Storesprint / Barkh Sweden AB
We turned to Sharp Cookie Advisors for help in defining our customer offer and drafting the license and SaaS agreements we needed to launch our RPA SaaS service. Sofia turned up on my radar while negotiating an international Joint Venture project for another SaaS company, and I was soon impressed by her razor-sharp focus on business issues and in-depth knowledge of complex licensing issues.

Alexander Hannerland

COO, Turbotic
Their advice within SaaS and GDPR has been valuable for our startup and for our international expansion. Sharp Cookie Advisors manages to provide clear and unambiguous recommendations in complex areas where there are a number of possible scenarios. For me as CEO, it is central that I can get a practical-minded advisor with whom I can discuss ideas. I can warmly recommend Sofia and her team for similar assignments.

Per Hultman

VD, Chico
We hired Sharp Cookie Advisors in 2017 to prepare our international group for the GDPR and then supporting our compliance team in daily operations. The team is very accessible, diligent and have very good insights into companies' needs. They have provided legal advice that has been practical and easy to grasp and implement. We have continued to work with them since then and would strongly recommend them for any data compliance work.
