Möt Fabian Bengtsson en glad kille som gjort mer än de flesta, eller som vi säger i Göteborg en go gubbe, med ett fantastiskt driv och en superinspirerande personlighet som passar lika bra på säljgolvet som i finrummet. Mannen med ett mantra att alltid prat med ”bönder på bönders vis” och en med fantastisk förmåga att både hitta vad som verkligen gör skillnad och sen fokusera på det så att resultat uppnås.

En person som började sin resa i sin pappas butik, där han tidigt fick lära sig vad det betyder att göra affärer och som under åren innehaft roller som både säljare, inköpare, marknadschef, VD och Ordförande på familjeföretaget SIBA. En man som varit ledamot i otaliga styrelser som Axfood, Svensk fastighetsförmedlning, NetOnNet och Komplett samt Ordförande i bl.a. Elektronikbranschen, NetOnNet & Företagarna och dessutom blivit utnämnd till ”årets främsta entreprenör” av Ernst and Young.

Möt mannen som verkar älska allt han gör oavsett om det är ideellt jobb som fotbollstränare för barnen eller som entreprenör när han enligt egen utsago hellre ”visslar på vägen till jobbet, än på hemvägen”.
