Summary
Jonas Forsslund is an entrepreneur and R&D executive who blends a technical PhD in Human-Computer Interaction and an MSc in Computer Science with 11+ years of product and startup experience, building solutions at the intersection of technology, design and user experience. He co-founded companies spanning 3D haptics and surgical simulation to EV charging infrastructure and biomedical drying, moving research prototypes toward market-ready, cost-effective deployments. Jonas combines hands-on full‑stack engineering and research chops with business development skills—securing funding, partnerships and public policy support—to scale novel technologies. A longtime advocate of open source and prototyping-for-complex-materials, his PhD work on spatial haptics informs a pragmatic approach to preparing technology for interaction design. He’s also an early adopter of AI-assisted development, leveraging LLMs to dramatically accelerate delivery while exploring new product applications.
