New Chairperson of the Young Professionals Committee
The Swedish Chamber of Commerce welcomes Joachim Rittfeldt Hofvenschiöld as the New Chairman of the Young Professionals Committee! Joachim's journey in entrepreneurship began at an early age when he embarked on a career as a professional esports athlete. He then transitioned to the business side of esports and gaming, leading marketing and social media channels for prominent companies in the industry. In recent years he has shifted his focus towards his own ventures, investments, and advisory work within the tech and web 3 sectors. "As the new YP Chairperson, I am thrilled to be part of the Young Professionals' ongoing growth and development. I am enthusiastic about propelling our work forward and creating a multitude of exciting events and networking opportunities in collaboration with the YP Committee and Swe-Cham Team. When I initially joined the Young Professionals, my goal was to maintain connections with Swedish traditions, companies, and individuals. The YP network offers a tremendous opportunity to fulfill these objectives and to enhance integration upon relocating to the Netherlands, both personally and professionally. The Young Professionals opens doors for networking, business opportunities, and friendships." The Swedish Chamber wishes Joachim a lot of success in his position as YP Chairperson!
