Bo and Kristina, high school sweethearts turned business partners, embody contrasting but complementary personalities. While Bo is a tech-savvy enthusiast with a knack for bold ambitions, Kristina brings a grounded sense of well-being and operational acumen. Together, they embarked on a journey that led to the creation of Viking Software.
Bo becomes a Computer Scientist, and Kristina is trained as a Pedagogue.
Both start working with development: Bo is hired for development in Qt, while Kristina works with the development of children in kindergarten.
Bo starts Thorsen Consulting, focusing on Qt development.
Kristina joins Thorsen Consulting to manage administrative duties.
Financial crisis hits; Thorsen Consulting goes bankrupt.
Bo and Kristina start a new venture, Fionia Software.
They close Fionia Software and accept an offer from a major Qt development house to start a European division.
A new opportunity causes the pair to start hiring developers for their own venture, officially founding Viking Software.
Bo is the visionary leader, often looking five years ahead and serving as the primary client contact. His approach is largely intuitive, shaped by a blend of technical expertise and a knack for client communication. Kristina, on the other hand, is the operational anchor of Viking Software. She focuses on the well-being of the employees, drawing from her background in pedagogy to create a harmonious work environment. Their contrasting styles form a balanced leadership approach, augmented by a board of directors that brings in diverse strategic viewpoints. Beyond the office, Bo and Kristina are actively involved in networking to broaden Viking Software’s influence in the industry.
The couple has outlined three primary goals for the future of Viking Software:
In addition, there are three things they do their best to avoid:
Bo and Kristina aim to achieve these goals and avoid these pitfalls organically. Their vision is a blend of Bo’s lofty ambitions and Kristina’s grounded realism, striving for a business that experiences steady, manageable growth.
