Vänsterblaskan ETC har erhållit ca 100 miljoner i presstöd och andra bilag de senaste 5 åren. Nu har deras chefredaktör just köpt en lgh för 14 miljoner i Stockholm. Hur kan vänstern inte se att detta är samma sak som "vinster i välfärden"?

The Nordics build world-class companies. The capital markets serving them haven't kept up. Nordic asset management has drifted toward gathering assets rather than generating returns. Narrow mandates, outdated strategies, little innovation. That should change. I've spent close to two decades building companies and raising capital in every form - equity, debt, hybrids, good markets and bad. From that seat you develop a clear view of where this industry works and where it doesn't. For the past year I've been working on something new with @SabinaWizander , @PikdokenT and @FredrikHjelm4. Today we're launching Always Summer, a new independent Nordic asset manager. The idea is simple: pair real investing expertise with people who've actually built and run companies. When you've sat on the other side of the table, you read the story differently.

What would be the most unexpected acquisition now by Anthropic?

Europe's security is being rewritten in Kyiv, not Brussels. Great to meet @AKamyshin last night, the man at the center of building Ukraine's defense industry, arguably the most important thing happening on the continent right now. Героям слава! 🇺🇦

@svenaxel @KRYcare @sr_ekot @EmelieRos vad tycker du saknas? menar du att rapporteringen är selektiv?

@jschildt @KRYcare @sr_ekot @EmelieRos det verkar saknas lite fler saker? :)

Stolt över det arbete @KRYcare och alla våra tusentals medarbetare gör varje dag för att öka tillgänglighet och effektivitet i vården. Kul att @sr_ekot uppmärksammar vårt kvalitets- och effektivitetsarbete.

Sweden just put $46m/year behind its national AI strategy. That's a Series A. For one startup Me, @antonosika, @jschildt & @joelhellermark wrote about it in @SiftedEU and @dagensindustri 1/

Discussed “Nordic founder DNA” at Techarena with @sophiabendz, @jschildt & @villums. We agreed. There is no single Nordic founder DNA. Swedes, Danes, Finns and Norwegians are meaningfully different. Right now, Sweden is the strongest ecosystem to build in. Capital depth. Talent density. Repeat founders. Institutional support. Regulation that does not punish ambition. Norway, on the other hand, is actively pushing builders away. Taxes matter. Culture matters. But if we zoom out, there are shared traits. You go international from day one. The home market is too small to think small. You care about product, design, and aesthetics. It shows. The welfare model creates air cover. You can take risk without existential downside. High digitization creates technical fluency. The baseline is high. Near native English removes friction globally. So no, there is no single Nordic founder DNA. But there is a structural advantage. Small markets. Global mindset. High trust societies. That combination compounds.

At @Techarenan in 87 minutes to talk about what makes the Nordics special it is cold, dark, we don't smile that much, but make great music and tech companies w @sophiabendz @jschildt @villums

Touchdown in Stockholm and working dinner with @SwedishPM and Swedish companies. Europe is working hard on making more private capital available, so entrepreneurs can scale up in Europe. We are building a Savings and Investment Union learning from the positive experience of Sweden. At same time, we will accelerate the adoption of new technologies and increase R&D spending in Europe.

I had dinner with @vonderleyen. Her sense of urgency surprised me. It's clear to me that the sense of urgency is not universal in Europe, despite rapid AI advances. I support @vonderleyen trying to address this!

The future isn’t inherited. It’s built. Today’s startups are tomorrow’s giants. But if we want to lead the next wave of innovation, we need to act now. Together with founders and leaders from Klarna, Kry, Sana, Amazon, Lovable, EU parliament, EQT, Accel, Nasdaq and more, we just published an open letter in @dagensindustri with one message: The Nordics can lead. But not without serious change. We call out three moves that cannot wait: Cut the red tape - Innovation dies in complexity. Europe has the scale. Now we need speed. Let founders build instead of filling out forms. Back the talent - Great companies are built by great people. We need to equip students, workers and researchers with real tools like AI and quantum. And build a culture where learning never stops. Unleash capital and technology - We have built global companies before. We can do it again. But only if we make Norden the best place to start and scale. That means easier access to capital, to deep tech, and to partnerships across sectors. The next platform shift is already happening. The question is whether we build the future here, or watch it happen somewhere else. We choose to build. Because the future isn’t inherited. It’s built.

Project Europe is not a company, it is a movement. It is 150 of the best founders in Europe uniting to say Europe can build mega companies. This is our time. LFG! Today we take over Times Square. Watch this space... time to build.

Europe breeds world-class companies. Want to build the next one? projecteurope.co

Ett enat Sverige står bakom våra vänner i Ukraina. Från invasionens inledning, under dessa tre krigsår, till idag – och in i framtiden. Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦

Attended Sommarminglet of tech entrepreneurs with @SwedishPM. Defence is crucial for Estonia along with the startup and tech sectors. Combining strengths of these sectors, innovation to revolutionize defence can follow. Estonian and Swedish companies should seize the momentum.
