Homepal CEO Rasmus Persson appointed 35 under 35 within the real estate industry
The industry newspaper Fastighetsnytt has named tomorrow's power holders in the real estate industry and we are proud to announce that our CEO Rasmus Persson made the list.
Fastighetsnytt asked Rasmus about how he ended up where he is today, his ten-year-plan, and his thoughts about the future of the real estate industry. Read his answers below.
Career:
After studying at Lund University, I had a job in sales waiting for me at a large well-known company, but at the last second, I chose Homepal. At the time, it was not an easy decision, but I have always had the drive to do something on my own and this was my chance - together with some amazing co-founders. Today I am the CEO and one of the driving factors in Homepal, an exciting start-up with a cocky vision to change the real estate industry with the help of data. It's an area in which the real estate industry has a lot to learn.
Over the years, I have met over 400 real estate players and gained a broad insight into the industry's challenges from a real estate company, supplier and investment perspective. In addition to my involvement in Homepal, I am part of the MERC Talent Network and am a member of PropTech Sweden's advisory board.
Here I am in 10 years:
The only thing that drives me in my career is going to a job that I love. Why? II believe that if you work with your passion, you will always deliver and grow. In 10 years, I hope I still love my job and inspire others around me to feel the same. In addition, I still want to challenge the status quo to constantly move the industry in the right direction.
For the real estate industry, I hope and believe it has made a great transformational journey and hopefully we at Homepal have been a major contributing factor in that journey.
