Published on: 5th September, 2023

In the last episode, we explored Hampus' journey from mandatory military service to university, where they started their company with the sole goal of not working for a big corporate entity. Throughout this time, he experienced a lot of paradigm shifts, learning that not only can he solve problems he thought he wouldn't be able to, but also being able to define the problem, to begin with, even when there are plenty of more experienced people around him. These paradigm shifts continued after selling their company to BlackBerry, something that put him on the path of eventually starting the early stageClimate Fund, pale blue dot.
