FULL TRANSCRIPTION OF THE INTERVIEW:
Alejandro: Alrighty. Hello everyone, and welcome to the DealMakers show. Today we have a great guest. I think that on the episode we’re having today, we’re going to be learning a lot about jumping from one thing to another and developing an expertise, a skillset, a desire and interest, and taking it to the next level in different ways and different flavors. So without further ado, let’s welcome our guest today. Martin Lindman, welcome to the show.
Martin Lindman: Thank you so much. It’s a pleasure to be here.
Alejandro: So born in Sweden, right outside of Stockholm. How was life growing up there?
Martin Lindman: I think it was good. Sweden is a great country to grow up in, and there are great opportunities to do. I spent most of my time as a young person and individual doing sports, basically. That was my whole childhood.
Alejandro: And this was tennis and hockey, so how did you get so competitive so early on?
Martin Lindman: I don’t know. It was very early on. I started ice skating when I was three years old, which even in Sweden is fairly young.
In this episode you will learn:
* How Doktor raised almost $100M without VC money
* The impact of COVID on the digitization of healthcare
* Martin’s top advice for his younger entrepreneurial self
