About Us
HiNation® was founded by Linda Krondahl in 2008. Linda Krondahl has a M.Sc. degree in Chemical Engineering, specializing in Technology Management. Since 2000, she has been working with organizational development and project leadership in various industries.
In 2008, HiNation was selected as one of ten participants in the PreIQube project run by incubator IQube during 2008. See www.preiqube.se for more information (Swedish). The initial prototypes were built and presented to a number of governmental and international institutions, as well as tested on possible users, during a two week business trip to Botswana in 2009.
During the PreIQube project, Linda met Kristina Linhardt, a member of the IQube mentor programme who got excited by the HiNation idea and participated in the Botswana business trip. Kristina brings extensive experience from starting up, establishing and developing companies in various industries such as medical technology, production, Internet sales and telecom in for instance France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain and 
UK. By combining practical experience with several years of international board member experience, Kristina provides a valuable source of knowledge and experience to HiNation, and is elected Chairman of the Board.
