I work at KTH Innovation at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, where I help researchers and students turn ideas and research into viable ventures. My focus is on commercialization, go-to-market strategy, and execution.Alongside my university role, I build and scale ventures.I am the Founder of Mellanmål Inc, a platform bringing Nordic, better-for-you food brands to the US market. The work is hands-on and operational: product and packaging decisions, FDA and regulatory setup, distribution, retail and e-commerce, partnerships, and fundraising.I am also the Founder of Entrepreneurs Without Borders, a global nonprofit supporting impact ventures aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. We organize through local Impact Chapters—groups that meet regularly to support entrepreneurs locally while connecting into a global network.As a keynote speaker, I speak internationally on innovation, leadership, and change. My keynotes are grounded in lived experience from building companies, raising capital, and working with founders and organizations under pressure to change.I’m open to conversations with investors, donors, strategic partners, and am available for keynote and speaking engagements internationally.

Fitness Instructor

I have been working as a fitness instructor since 1994. I started out at a small but great gym called Saga Motion and then moved on to Olympic Fitness in Göteborg, that was later aquired by SATS, and at the same time I started working as a boxing instructor. When I moved back to Stockholm I moved over to Kroppskultur and evolved into kickboxing and more classic boxing. After that I spent five years at World Class Vasastan and nowadays you'll find me at Nordic Wellness Odenplan Stockholm.

Leadership advisor. Executive coach. Tech founder on a mission to add life to people's years.

With over 20 years leading teams in global investment banking and hedge funds, I bring deep expertise in banking, derivatives, trading, risk management, and institutional finance.

Today, I lead the IZUN GROUP with a mission to democratize access to next-generation financial products - leveraging blockchain, DeFi, and digital asset infrastructure to build inclusive, user-centric solutions for both retail and institutional markets.

I thrive at the convergence of traditional finance (TradFi) and Web3, and bring a strategic focus on:

Institutional-Grade Risk & Governance

I’m passionate about building the financial systems of tomorrow - secure, transparent, and universally accessible.
