Once an Innovator, Always an Innovator!

Once an Innovator, Always an Innovator! 

We are thrilled to share a glimpse into one of our most inspiring episodes of Meet the Founders, where we had the exceptional opportunity to connect with Robert Forchheimer, a co-founder of SICK IVP. Robert is not just a key player; he is a visionary whose passion and creativity have helped shape the trajectory of our company. During this episode, Robert took us on a journey through his many groundbreaking innovations that have played a pivotal role in our success story.

What makes the narrative even more impressive is the evolution of SICK IVP from a modest startup to a vibrant team of over 90 talented individuals based in Linköping. This growth is not just a number; it represents the hard work, commitment, and the innovative spirit that defines SICK IVP. It's a testament to the idea that with passion and perseverance, great things can be achieved. Continuous innovation is woven into the very fabric of our identity, and it's this commitment that has allowed us to not only thrive in the past but also look forward to an exciting future filled with potential.

Robert's dual role as a professor at Linköping University demonstrates his unwavering dedication to fostering creativity and advancing knowledge within the community. His excitement for innovation is infectious, motivating both current employees and aspiring entrepreneurs to push boundaries and think outside the box.

The insights shared during our session with him made a lasting impact. Participants left with renewed inspiration and a deeper understanding of what it means to innovate and lead with purpose. As we continue to grow and evolve, we carry forward Robert's vision and the collective mission of SICK IVP, striving for excellence in everything we do. Join us in championing the spirit of innovation and in celebrating the incredible journey we are on together!
