Ann Edberg, Social entrepreneur, CEO and business developer.

Experienced strategic process- and project manager from several businesses and types of organizations. Some of them including international branches and networks.

A design process in Vancouver has been a great source of inspiration to me. I was eager to learn more about innovations based on user needs and innovative business development. In my search for methods to dedicate myt future work in line with that philosophy, I found Openlab and Design Thinking.

2015 i decided to take my Bachelor degree of Science in Business Administration and Economics to a contemporary level. To learn how to design sustainable solutions for real challenges and co-operate with a team of talented and dedicated co-students from different places and areas of expertise, was beyond my expectations. 

In my business I have continued to work with Openlab and especially some of the team members. Together we have created new business concepts and projects, using design thinking. We have also included digitalization and business model innovation to reach scalability. Openlab has been a great preparation for my work as a social entrepreneur and change maker. The opportunity to keep working with some of the team members, making use of the methodology in creating value to new customers, has added even more to that value.
