Nicklas Bergman is a thought-provoking Swedish technology entrepreneur and investor with a first-hand understanding of how technology is changing business and society.
Throughout his 30 years of working as an entrepreneur, Nicklas has built companies in a variety of industries, regions, and economic climates. He is the co-founder and largest investor in an electron microscopy company with unique patented technologies and high-profile customers in more than 30 countries worldwide, the Volvo distribution network in Romania that grew into a 300 million EUR business, and a Scandinavian ski resort that has attracted investments close to 100 million EUR in the past ten years.
Nicklas is also a long-time member of the European startup scene, and as a business angel he’s invested in more than 20 startups. He’s seen companies go out of business, awake from the dead, conquer the world, being sold to major industry players, or listed on the stock exchange.

As an entrepreneur and venture capitalist, Nicklas lives with technology 24/7/365 and meets with scientists, innovators, entrepreneurs, and fellow investors daily. He's optimistic about the promises emerging from new technologies but is also very concerned that society is not ready for the upcoming techstorm.

We live in an increasingly complex and uncertain world fueled by a steady stream of breakthrough research, innovations and disruptive business models. Digitization is on top of all corporate agendas, and although highly relevant, this is only the warm-up.
The real disruption will come at the intersection of new digital technologies such as AI, blockchain, and the Internet of Things in combination with a deeper understanding of nanotechnology, neurotechnology, biotechnology, and genetics. In a couple of decades, this will create a radically different world from the one we're living in today... With serious skin in the game as a long-time technology entrepreneur and investor, Nicklas is uniquely positioned to guide you through the challenge of understanding how technology is rapidly changing the way we do business.
His masterclass is based on the three part framework of Analyze - Assess - Adapt: • Analyzing technologies to identify the most relevant break-throughs, including the highly relevant time perspective. Timing is everything… • Assessing implications for your competition and value chain as well as for your customers. Identify which innovations are most impactful and urgent to act on, and set relevant priorities. • Adapting to a new reality and change your business models, leadership style, view on sustainability and ethics, but foremost the ability to thrive in times of uncertainty. The three-hour masterclass will be divided into five modules where the participants will go through each part aided by their own copy of The Techstorm Playbook.
