With an academic background in systems science and later also medicine, I am driven by a vision to improve and increase the accessibility of healthcare through digitization. The potential of digitization lies in giving patients increased support and a better understanding of their health, which in turn gives them the opportunity to take more active responsibility for their own care, which leads to better treatment results. My entrepreneurial journey began in 2013 when I founded Mindoktor, a milestone in the digitization of Swedish healthcare. Through my involvement and work in companies such as LUVIT, Mindoktor, Blodtrycksdoktorn, Docly and Yazen, I have more than 25 years of experience in establishing and running companies in areas related to the digitization of education and healthcare.
