Hjalmar Nilsonne
Hjalmar Nilsonne is the co-founder and CEO of Neko Health, a Swedish health-tech company he established in 2018 alongside Daniel Ek. He is best known for building Neko's integrated preventive healthcare platform, which combines custom medical sensors, AI, and clinical care to deliver comprehensive health scans focused on early detection. Prior to Neko Health, he founded and led Watty, an energy data company that used machine learning to improve residential energy efficiency and was later acquired by Assa Abloy. He holds an MSc in Industrial Engineering and Management from KTH Royal Institute of Technology.
“This vertical integration is not incidental; it is the foundation that allows Neko Health to control the experience from start to finish, to move faster and to improve continuously.”
“For Ek and Nilsonne, the larger bet is that healthcare can move from primarily reacting to disease toward measuring more, earlier.. and giving people information they can act on before something feels wrong.”
“I've worked on this launch since joining Neko a year ago. For @HNilsonne, @eldsjal and @shak, it's been 8 years in the making.”
