Daniel Setterwall Joins Capacio

Daniel Setterwall joins Capacio with a primary focus on the company’s ongoing fundraising process – a SEK 10 million seed round. In addition, Daniel will also work with business development and sales.

Daniel brings over 13 years of experience from commercial leadership roles as CEO and Business Area Manager, with a background in IT talent supply (consulting and recruitment services), and most recently as CEO of a SaaS and AI company within football data.

Daniel comments:
“It is truly exciting to be part of Capacio’s journey. The company combines deep brain science with digital, scalable testing, making advanced cognitive knowledge practically accessible. This enables a significantly deeper understanding of human capabilities and contributes to both improved performance and greater well-being.

Initially, the company is placing extra focus on football and recruitment – two verticals where the impact is very tangible and which also align closely with my own background.

The ambition to build a billion-SEK company within eight years is, of course, highly inspiring. To make that journey possible, capital is crucial – which is why it feels completely natural for me to take responsibility for the fundraising.”

Capacio CEO, Anders Norén, comments

“We go from business partners – combining performance data with cognitive data, thus better explaining the performance – to colleagues and close collaborators. While our evidence-based tools and knowledge bring extraordinary power, precision and benefits to the user, we are first movers and thought leaders and as such has all the challenges related to this position. We can now see that the world is waking up and are close to a breakthrough. Daniel joining us in this phase with excellent timing. He combines many important and distinct abilities and attributes that make this collaboration both fruitful, joyful and successful”.
