Market oriented small business and idea developer
Göteborg Area, Sweden
Entrepreneur focused on business development and business strategies. I am very interested in new business ideas in all area and political initiatives for creating more companies. I am also very interested in Personal Branding as a tool for personal development in contrast to Employee Branding.
To me, new experiences is the single most powerful mean to improve the quality of life, and it opens doors to personal development on different levels. As long as I am developing by learning new things, I will feel successful. However, I think it is very important to share the experiences with others and give them the opportunity to experience the same feeling.
If you are thinking of, or have already begun starting your own business, I am sure that you can benefit from my network.
