Rasmus Waller started as the new CEO at Encare on August 25. Most recently, he served as Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) at Platform 24, the market-leading player in virtual care for both public healthcare providers and health insurance companies. Previously, he served as Vice President of Sales at the medical record system company Cambio Healthcare System and was responsible for several international ventures, among other things. In total, Rasmus Waller has more than 20 years of health tech experience.
Rasmus Waller succeeded Anna Pettersson, interim CEO, who took office when Urban Adolfsson left the company in March 2022.
"We are very pleased to welcome Rasmus Waller as CEO of Encare. Rasmus deeply understands the healthcare market and has a well-proven track record of building strong customer relationships and managing rapid growth in Sweden and abroad. With his drive and business acumen, he will be able to lead Encare's operations forward following our offensive strategy," says Sören Johansson, chairman of the board at Encare.
Rasmus Waller takes office in conjunction with the company's capital raising of SEK 26 million in a share issue led by Sciety. The new capital will accelerate international expansion and strengthen the organization in product development.
" I am thrilled to take on this new challenge and responsibility of leading Encare, a company with a unique offer and positioning. Few health tech companies can offer a solution whose beneficial effects – better and more cost-effective healthcare – are repeatedly proven in published studies. It is also fascinating that Encare is a global company that operates on five continents. I see great opportunities for Encare to accelerate its growth, and I hope to be able to contribute with my drive and experience in growing companies when Encare is now scaling up. And I look forward to doing my best to complement an already solid team on this journey, says Rasmus Waller.
"I also want to take the opportunity to thank Anna Pettersson as interim CEO and Sören Johansson as working chairman of the board for his work with the share issue. As a result, Encare can now accelerate globally while we develop our internal organization”, says Rasmus Waller.
