By combining innovation, entrepreneurial spirit and a desire to bring about change, Jobbs has made great strides forward. Tobias shares his journey, which has been full of both challenges and insights. <\/p>\n\n
Challenges that have shaped leadership<\/strong><\/p>\n\n For Tobias, the path to becoming an entrepreneur has not always been plain sailing. He describes how it can be a challenge to make difficult decisions, particularly in times of adversity. <\/p>\n\n \u2013 Having to make staff redundant is one of the most unpleasant aspects of being an entrepreneur. But sometimes it is necessary to ensure the company\u2019s long-term survival. It\u2019s a balance between rational decisions and the emotional impact, explains Tobias. <\/p>\n\n On a personal level, he has also juggled his career and family life.<\/p>\n\n \u2013 With three children, everyday life can be a full-time job in itself, but it\u2019s something I think many people can relate to.<\/p>\n\n Successes that give you energy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Despite the challenges, it is the rewarding moments that drive Tobias forward. He describes how Jobbs\u2019 idea has developed into a tangible platform offering secure and flexible solutions for unmanned environments. <\/p>\n\n \u2013 The most rewarding thing is seeing how our solution actually makes a difference to our customers. The fact that we\u2019ve reached 28,000 registered users and achieved 100 per cent uptime shows that we\u2019re delivering at the highest level. <\/p>\n\n He also highlights his co-founders as a crucial part of the company\u2019s success.<\/p>\n\n \u2013 I really want to highlight Anders and Daniel as a crucial part of our success; they are incredibly talented. It is together that we are building this company, and surrounding yourself with the right people is one of the most important aspects of creating something successful. <\/p>\n\n Tobias is proud that Jobbs\u2019 platform is revolutionising the way businesses operate in physical environments. From Skistar\u2019s seamless mountain experiences to Folkpool\u2019s round-the-clock access to products, their solution is proving its worth. <\/p>\n\n He also looks back on fun and educational experiences, such as pitching to investors.<\/p>\n\n \u2013 The process of raising capital wasn\u2019t just a challenge, but also something I really enjoyed. It was a chance to really show what we stand for and where we\u2019re heading. <\/p>\n\n Advice for the entrepreneurs of the future<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Tobias also shares some valuable advice for those who dream of starting their own business:<\/p>\n\n -Have the courage to get started. Don\u2019t wait for everything to be perfect \u2013 problem-solving is part of the journey. <\/p>\n\n -Find the right team. Surround yourself with people who complement you, both in terms of skills and energy. <\/p>\n\n -Think long term. Choose partners who can contribute more than just capital \u2013 experience and networks are just as valuable. <\/p>\n\n -Don\u2019t forget to have fun. It\u2019s in those inspiring and energising moments that you\u2019ll find the motivation to carry on. <\/p>\n\n Jobbs, led by Tobias Engelbrektsson, is a shining example of how innovation and passion can lead to success. We wish them the best of luck in the \u2018Rising Star of the Year\u2019 award at Stockholm Business Expo 2025 \u2013 where the companies of the future are shaped and celebrated. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Stockholm Business Expo, which takes place on 19\u201320 February at Kistam\u00e4ssan, brings together Sweden\u2019s most innovative companies.
