  After 25+ years as an entrepreneur, creative director and executive in the games industry, I’ve become an experienced builder and leader of companies and creative teams. Recently, I’ve also added extensive experience in the field of investing and M&A, as well as strategic and executive advisory. I’ve had many different roles (as evidenced by my LinkedIn profile), but my operational experience is primarily divided into three parts: 1997-2009: I founded Massive Entertainment straight out of university, and as CEO took it from zero to almost 150 FTEs during my twelve years at the helm. The company was publicly listed in 2000, and a few years later acquired by Vivendi Games (Activision Blizzard). I stayed on as Managing Director, guiding all our production efforts, and later supervised the process of selling the studio to Ubisoft. The games created under my stewardship have an average Metacritic rating of 85% and are viewed as some of the world’s best games in their category. Massive Entertainment has since continued to thrive and is today one of Europe’s premier development studios with over 800 developers. 2009-2016: After leaving Massive, I founded the quiz and mobile games company Planeto, where I was CEO and Chief Creative Officer. We had some great success with our quiz apps in the Nordic markets and sold the company to magazine publisher Bonnier Publications in 2015. 2016-2022: I was headhunted to help build up Nordisk Games—a new division of media-conglomerate Egmont—making investments in established game studios across Europe. I was the Chief Strategy Officer and Lead Partner on most of our minority and majority transactions. In total we deployed almost EUR 300 million, acquiring ten studios with a total of 1000+ FTEs. Our ROI was very positive, and the division today delivers a substantial part of Egmont’s profits. In addition, during my years in the Nordic games industry I’ve been part of various non-profits and community building initiatives. For example, I’m founder of the Association of Swedish Game Developers (the national lobby organisation), as well as founder of Game Habitat, an organisation promoting game development activities in southern Sweden.
