Background

About Ola Samelius

Experienced international CEO and business leader with 35+ years in technical industries—known for building high-performing teams, leading sustainable growth, and empowering people to succeed through trust and responsibility. As CEO and President of Allgon Group, and long-standing CEO of Tele Radio Group, I lead international organizations through transformation, expansion, and innovation. My journey spans from hands-on technical leadership to setting up global operations, production lines, and company cultures in Europe, Asia, and the Americas. My leadership philosophy is simple: build the right team, set the direction, and then give people the freedom to do what they do best. I believe in trusting people with ownership instead of micromanaging, and in building a culture where accountability and continuous learning lead to real results. Key strengths and focus areas: • International business development and global expansion • Change management and organizational transformation • Building cultures of trust, performance, and innovation • Technical operations and scalable production setups • Coaching leaders and sharing experience to support growth • Board work, investor dialogue, and long-term value creation With academic roots at Chalmers University of Technology and the University of Gothenburg, I bring both technical depth and strategic vision. Whether scaling a business, driving change, or supporting future leaders, my goal is always the same: take people and organizations to the next level—with clarity, integrity, and a long-term mindset.
