The Swedish Chamber of Commerce is proud to present our last mentor in the Mentorship Program 2022/2023, Sara Wilhelmsson!
Sara Wilhelmsson began her career in Sweden with care for patients with mental disabilities. She then moved on to work within sales and later switched to tech when she came to the Netherlands. Since 2016, she has led sales and marketing teams at tech companies such as vidaXL, Aexus and most recently Snowflake where she leads their European team of Sales Development Representatives. When she is not working, she likes to cook food from all corners of the world, travel to Sweden with her family, spend time with friends and read. Sara is really looking forward to being part of the Swedish Chamber of Commerce's Mentorship Program 2022/2023.
The Swedish Chamber of Commerce is also looking forward to starting the program together with our mentors and mentees!
