Bob joined Oxx in 2018 and has been deeply involved in helping the firm support European B2B software companies at the growth stage. Based in Stockholm, Bob works closely with founders to tackle the challenges of scaling internationally, drawing on his background as an investment banker at Torch Partners and as a software CFO. His focus is on combining operational insight with a practical approach to growth.
Bob is particularly interested in data tooling, seeing the rise of data creation activities as a driver for innovation in storage, access, and enrichment. He also spends time thinking about open-source software and how it can help companies accelerate growth through distribution advantages. While he values data-driven decision-making, Bob believes that the human side of scaling—team-building, retention, and alignment—is often overlooked in growth equity, he is keen to ensure it gets the attention it deserves.
At Oxx, Bob is involved both in identifying new investment opportunities and in supporting portfolio companies after investment. Currently, he works with Goodlord, Crunchr and Peak, and have helped handle both the challenges and opportunities that come when companies achieve product-market fit and are scaling.
In working with portfolio companies, Bob enjoys the aspect of creative problem-solving. He enjoys diving into the details of a shared ambition and working alongside founders to bring it to life, seeing the process of collaboration is as rewarding as the outcomes. His approach is collaborative and deliberate, focused on building strong relationships and creating lasting value.
Beyond his day-to-day work, Bob has a keen interest in the trends shaping the future of software and technology. He spends time exploring how new technologies like AI transformers, alongside factors like geopolitics and organisational dynamics, will influence the industry. Outside of work, Bob enjoys spending time with his dog and you can occasionally catch him doing stand-up comedy.
