Why did you take this job?

"I've devoted my entire career to analyzing business development strategies and trends at the crossroads of media, technology and society. So it's impossible for me to turn down an opportunity like this, where I'll have the chance to not only analyze but to actually lead projects based on my conclusions. It's the perfect job for me. The things that Sara Öhrvall and the R&D team are creating seem extremely contemporary, innovative and fun.
