Göran has more than 30 years of senior executive experience and board roles with several large MNCs, most notably Philips and Italcementi, with a focus on expanding the Asia operations for these businesses.
He has worked across Asia Pacific, Africa, Europe, Latin America and the Middle East, and thanks to this cross-cultural background he has amassed a wealth of experience and connections. Today, Anda Pacific helps clients to tap into Göran's expansive top-level professional network.
