    Caroline Farberger wears many hats. She is a professional chairperson, board member, experienced CEO, and Tech Investor. She is also a successful author.

    Her time up to 2022 as CEO of the Swedish Insurer ICA Insurance, saw her spend 25 years in the financial industry. She held many senior management positions during this period. But besides her management experience, she was also a dot-com entrepreneur and consultant with McKinsey.
