Lennart's background

I was born 1960 in Frösön, Jämtland, in the middle of Sweden.

In 1965 my parents, my brother and I moved to Gävle, Gästrikland, on the east coast less than 200km north of Stockholm.

Moved with my parents in 1971 to Kungsbacka, on the west coast slightly south of Gothenburg (Göteborg).

Finally, in 1978, my parents and I moved to Helsingborg, further to the south on the west coast, close to Denmark and Copenhagen.

I studied at the Lund Institute of Technology between 1979 and 1985 with a break for the compulsory military service for 10 months in Malmö 1981-1982.

In 1985 I started working as a software developer for Helsingborgs Dagblad. Started working with Macintosh computers 1987. I started working for Mactive when it was formed from the computer department of Helsingborgs Dagblad in 1988.

Mactive was bought by the British company Atex in 2007.

The old Mactive was bought from Atex by Newscycle Solutions in 2013.

Moved to a new home in Helsingborg with my spouse, Christina Sandberg in 1989.
