Top SchoolThomas Bjelkeman-pettersson is a project manager and serial entrepreneur with 15 years of experience building data-driven systems for sustainable food, energy and water, and a longer career in software and technical leadership. He co-founded and scaled Akvo’s open-source data platform used by governments and major NGOs to monitor services for millions of people, then launched Stremtech to commercialize automated, circular aquaponics for year‑round local food production.

His background uniquely blends military instructional experience, hands-on systems engineering and environmental science, enabling him to manage complex, multidisciplinary projects from concept to operation.
