Carl-Viggo Östlund is proposed as new Board member in Goobit Group

“I got to know Christian Ander, a pioneer within crypto and blockchain, 6 years ago and I am fascinated by knowledge. My view is that we remain at the very beginning of exploring the possibilities of blockchains, despite the technology being close to 13 years old. I hope to contribute through my long management and board level experience in different environments, my knowledge of working in a supervised business and my curiosity and openness” says Carl-Viggo Östlund, new board member in Goobit Group AB.

“Carl-Viggo Östlund will make a strong contribution through his experience of financial and regulated companies and he has the right attitude for a quickly changing and growing market such as crypto,” says Christian Ander, main owner and Board member in Goobit Group AB.
