Introduction
Ola Sars is a Stockholm based serial entrepreneur active in the music-tech space.
He is the Founder, CEO & Chairman of Soundtrack Your Brand, the world's fastest-growing music-platform for B2B
Before Soundtrack, he co-founded Spotify Businesses together with Spotify, a stand-alone effort to expand Spotify’s reach into B2B-streaming. 2018 he pivoted Spotify Business into Soundtrack as a fully independent brand and business.
Previous to co-founding Spotify Business, he was the co-founder and COO of Beats Music, acquired by Apple and transformed into Apple Music, as well as the co-founder of Pacemaker, the world's first DJ driven music platform.
Ola has been featured in Rolling Stone, Billboard, Bloomberg and is a regular in music and technology publications.
I spoke to Ola a few weeks ago when we were looking at what we could tackle in this discussion and it was clear there is a lot of fear in the market at the moment?
Questions
People have been too reactive recently, what did you mean by that? What is important now and which wasn't important 18 months ago? What does that mean for tech companies? How should CEO speak to their teams/companies at the moment? What's the reality for people in tech, data, and products at the moment? Why is a flexible resourcing team helpful? Why should people check out the careers page at Soundtrack your brand? How can they get in touch?

Mimi is a journalist writing for the European startup site Sifted.eu, backed by Financial Times, where she focuses on discussing whats going on across the Nordics.
She previously I worked at Di Digital as a reporter where Ishe also ran events such as Di Startup Tour and Di Female Founders.
Today we are discussing the trend of impact companies.
• What is an impact company? Why has it become a trend? • Top impact companies to look out for in Sweden ? • Why are different sectors looking to adopt the term impact company onto the title impact company? E.g. fintech • Which sectors do we think will try to latch onto the impact company title, that people should watch out for • How will none impact companies respond • How import is this for the typical tech, prdouct or data person when choosing their next job
In this episode, we discussed Proactive vs Reactive Working. We discussed the stigma against reactive working, moving from one mindset to another, successes of each style of working and how do you balance between the two.

Welcome to the Evolution Exchange Nordics Podcast.
Today I will be speaking with Kevin Albrecht
Kevin is a finance technology leader with 20 years of experience in software engineering, product management, and leadership, including 10 years in finance.
In the recent past, he has worked for companies such as Klarna and Betalo. Currently, he is the co-founder and CEO of P.F.C
P.F.C. is a new way of relating to money. It's more than a spending account, more than a debit card, and it helps you understand how you're actually doing.
Kevin has been a constant friend of the podcast but this time I wanted him to share some of his failures, learns, and lessons for our listeners.
So today we will be talking 20 years in tech, from engineers to CEO
Discussion points for the podcast • Introduction to Kevin – background, current role, passions • What shaped your career? Defining moments? • What have been the most challenging moments and how did you get through them? • When did you have an aspiration to be a ceo / founder? • What advice would you give to anyone else on this journey?

Anna has over 20 years in experience across marketing, finance, innovation, technology and management, with a professional background of top management positions across major start-ups & listed companies.
Anna is now on the board of several companies including Permobil, Nordnet, but her main role nowadays is being CEO of Kivra.
If you are based in Sweden already, you have most likely already heard of Kivra. If you haven’t; Kivra is a service which allows you to collect letters, receipts, and other important items to document digitally. It’s secure, easily-accessible and better for the environment.
One interesting fact about Anna is that she was born is China and can speak fluent Mandarin! Unfortunately, I cannot – so today’s interview will be in English instead!
We came to meet Anna through one of the Engineering Managers at Kivra, where we’ve since discussed her passions & what drives her in her work/industry.

Discussing:
✅ Discussing your strategy for determining whether something needs to be developed in-house or paid for externally?
✅ To make outsourcing successful, what kind of commitment in terms of time and active participation do you consider and budget for and why?
✅ If you have the skills in-house to do a successful procurement, why not just develop it yourself? If you lack the skills, think of the risks involved with bringing people/services in from external sources.
How do you make the leap from individual contributor to technology team leader? We brought together a handful of Nordic CTOs to discuss the path to CTO.

How do you break down data silos and make data available in an environment where data can be sensitive and regulated?
