Prior to that she worked 4 years at Morgan Stanley, and has an MSc from Stockholm School of Economics. Identified as top 75 global leader by Goldman Sachs. Originally from Sweden’s west coast, so good jokes and affinity for salty water is given.

As a Company Builder, Mazdak has a passion and experience from multiple start-ups. Before joining blq, he was the CEO of an international legal tech SaaS company. When he’s not supporting our portfolio companies, he supports his favorite football team in the Swedish league, which according to him, is the best league in the world.
