HR tech startup Empowr raises €1.3 million

Empowr from Amsterdam is an HR-tech startup that focuses on preventing absenteeism through mental and preventive support for employees.

The platform connects employees at risk of absence with certified experts such as psychologists and coaches within 48 hours. The company works with a network of hundreds of specialists and helps employers recognize early signs of stress and burnout and take immediate action. Through this approach, many employees can recover quickly and long-term absenteeism is prevented, resulting in significant cost savings for organizations.

With the investment of €1.3 million, Empowr aims to further expand its platform, particularly in sectors such as healthcare and childcare, where absenteeism is high. Additionally, the capital will be used to further develop the technology and services and accelerate growth in the Netherlands.
