How Staffan is building a better working world

“I’m convinced that the digitalization we’re witnessing today will help us build a better world. Working with companies at the absolute forefront of technology gives me early insights into the changes that will affect our behaviour – and it’s almost always for the better. As M&A consultant to these companies, my primary role is to generate value for my clients; however, I also get the chance to contribute to social development since it is powered by technology in a great many cases. When all the pieces fall into place in this type of process, I usually feel that we have nudged the world in the right direction, and I think that my highly skilled team of people feel the same.”
