Our story
From students to innovators: How we built Forento from scratch to solve the challenges we faced in online course creation

In 2018, the Forento team was born, called Förento at the time, referencing the abbreviation for the entrepreneurship and business economics course in Swedish high schools. We ourselves were students, studying those exact subjects - and felt all material our teachers shared with us was outdated but had development potential.

Our initial idea was to create an online course and sell it to schools, teachers, and students. This was the first time we encountered how the services on the market are either too complicated and learning to manage them takes a very long time, they lack essential functionality, or are way too expensive. Rather than relying on an existing course platform service, we built our own platform from scratch to host our courses.

Fast forward about two years, we'd sold courses to hundreds of students and teachers - but wanted to move on. This time, rather than building a new course within a new topic we decided to build forento.io - the platform you know today.
