Speakers

Linus Häggblom

Ladies and Gentlemen, hold onto your 3D printed hats because we’re about to introduce a man who embodies the spirit of Swedish innovation so thoroughly, you might mistake him for a Finnish design icon. Meet Linus Häggblom, the Regional Channel Sales Manager for Northern Europe at Formlabs, who has been making the world of tech a better place, one 3D printer at a time.

With a career that's as layered as a finely printed 3D object, Linus has navigated the high seas of tech from the rocky shores of Åland to the sophisticated landscapes of Stockholm. His journey is a testament to what happens when you mix Swedish practicality with a dash of Nordic mystery. Linus isn't just a master of sales, strategic planning, and channel strategy; he's also a connoisseur of languages, wielding English, Swedish, and just enough Danish and Norwegian to be dangerous in most of Scandinavia.

But what truly sets Linus apart isn't just his ability to sell 3D printers like hotcakes in a winter market. It's his profound dedication to helping partners and customers not just to succeed but to excel in their 3D printing endeavors. From the trenches of advertising sales in Åland, where every islander now likely has a 3D printed mailbox, to the sophisticated corridors of Formlabs, Linus has been the beacon of innovation and the very model of a modern major general in the 3D printing world.

His secret sauce? A mix of relentless optimism, deep technical know-how, and the mysterious ability to navigate the complex ecosystem of tech sales with the grace of a Swedish elk. Linus has helped build key account structures from scratch, turned presales and aftersales into an art form, and even dabbled in HR and work safety because, well, someone's got to ensure that the 3D printers don't start a revolution.

As we welcome Linus to the stage, be prepared to dive deep into the realms of additive manufacturing and 3D printing, where he'll share insights gleaned from years of experience, sprinkled with the occasional dad joke, because being "sooo Swedish" means never taking yourself too seriously. Strap in for a journey to the future of technology with a guide who's as reliable as a Volvo, as innovative as Spotify, and as uniquely Swedish as a midsummer night's dream.

Nils-Erik Hedegaard

Prepare to be enlightened, entertained, and possibly even a bit educated, as we introduce a man whose career is as diverse as a Danish smorgasbord—Nils-Erik Hedegaard. As a Special Consultant at Herningsholm Erhvervsskole & Gymnasier in the heart of Denmark, Nils-Erik has worn more hats than a royal guard at Amalienborg Palace.

Nils-Erik's journey through the realms of education, consultancy, and even a stint as a warfare specialist (yes, you heard that right) makes him the Swiss Army knife of professionals—Danish edition, of course. From leading the charge at Kyocera Unimerco's Academy to mastering the art of aluminum production, his experiences are as rich and varied as the layers of a Danish pastry.

But it's not just his professional life that's packed with adventure and achievement. Nils-Erik has navigated the educational seas with the skill of a Viking, leading Herningsholm Erhvervsskole & Gymnasier through the fjords of knowledge and learning with a steady hand and a keen eye for innovation. Under his guidance, learners have embarked on voyages of discovery, armed not with swords and shields but with the tools and technologies that are shaping our future.

With a background that blends technical weaponry with the nuances of marketing and educational leadership, Nils-Erik is uniquely equipped to talk about the intersection of technology, learning, and maybe how to prepare for a Viking invasion (just in case). His tenure as a Warfare Specialist adds a layer of intrigue; after all, it's not every day you meet a man who can discuss both the finer points of educational policy and the mechanics of technical weaponry.

As Nils-Erik takes the stage, expect a presentation that's as informative as it is engaging, peppered with insights drawn from a career that spans the gamut from production management to educational leadership. And, given his diverse background, don't be surprised if he teaches us all a thing or two about the art of navigating life's challenges with the poise of a seasoned educator and the strategic mind of a military specialist.

So, strap in and ready your notebooks (or shields, if you're feeling particularly Norse), as we dive into a session with Nils-Erik Hedegaard that promises to be as enlightening as it is unforgettable. After all, in the world of Tech Days, it's not just about exploring the future of technology—it's about learning from those who've charted their own unique courses through the annals of innovation and education.
