Investor's Head of Corporate Communication & Sustainability Viveka Hirdman-Ryrberg steps down

Viveka Hirdman-Ryrberg, age 60, has decided to step down after close to five years at Investor and more than 30 years within the Wallenberg sphere.

“Viveka has been instrumental in setting and driving our sustainability strategy as well as gearing up our communication work. She is a true change agent that gets things done and has been a much-appreciated colleague. While highly regrettable, I have full respect for her decision and wish her all the best going forward,” says Johan Forssell, Investor’s President and CEO.

“It has been a great privilege to be a part of the fantastic Investor team. I have now reached an age when I hope to pursue a new career focused on board work and on how sustainability can be even more integrated in business models,” says Viveka Hirdman-Ryrberg, Head of Corporate Communication & Sustainability.

Viveka Hirdman-Ryrberg will stay on in her role at Investor until the fourth quarter 2023 and will be engaged within the Wallenberg sphere also going forward. The recruitment of a new Head of Corporate Communication & Sustainability will now be initiated.
