April 4, 2025: Lyvia is pleased to announce the appointment of Martin Almgren as Deputy CEO and CFO, effective immediately. This strategic leadership enhancement is a key step in aligning Lyvia’s operational and financial structure, ensuring strong governance and accountability as Lyvia enters its next growth phase.
Martin Fagéus, who has played a crucial role in building the finance department, will pursue new opportunities outside Lyvia. He will remain with the company until the 6th of June to ensure a smooth and effective transition.
“We extend our sincere appreciation to Martin Fagéus for his dedication and invaluable contributions in building Lyvia's Finance department,” said Sebastian Karlsson, CEO at Lyvia Group.
To support Lyvia’s long-term vision, the company decided to merge the CFO and COO roles into a single, unified position: Deputy CEO/CFO. Together with the Board, Lyvia has determined that this role will be instrumental in leading the company’s next stage of development. The position requires strong financial and operational expertise, as well as experience in managing complex business environments.
Martin Almgren brings extensive experience from listed companies, most recently serving as CFO of SkiStar. His impressive background includes senior leadership positions at AddLife (Business Area Manager Medtech and CFO), Addtech (Group Financial Controller), and Nefab (Group Accounting Director). Additionally, as a former Lyvia Board member, Martin is already well-acquainted with the company’s structure, business, and financial landscape, providing a seamless transition into this key leadership role.
“We are pleased to welcome Martin Almgren into this pivotal role,” said Sebastian Karlsson, CEO at Lyvia Group. “His extensive experience and leadership will be invaluable as we continue to strengthen our operations and drive Lyvia forward into the next phase of our journey. This appointment is also an important part of our contingency plan, ensuring that we have a robust and prepared leadership structure in place for the future.”
