XVII – MAKE IT MATTER

The team behind Xvii

Strategists, business developers and sustainability experts with their feet firmly planted in the reality of industrial B2B. Small enough to be close to the customer – senior enough to lead in the boardroom.

CEO

Lisa heads up Xvii and is often the first point of contact for new clients. Her focus is on business development, strategic sales and positioning – and she is the one who helps clients define their business challenges before the right team is assigned to find a solution.

Previous senior roles in communications, innovation and business development, including at Länsförsäkringar Göteborg and Bohuslän, Stampen Media, Saab Automobile and Lindex, have provided him with extensive experience in managing large organisations.
