Benjamin von Ahn
Founding Partner
As a Founding Partner at The Insiders, is a recognized architect of human-centric digital transformation, particularly within the intricate landscapes of large organizations, the public sector, and government. He champions a transformative vision where technological advancement isn't just about adoption, but about prioritizing people to unlock unprecedented value and minimize financial waste.
With years dedicated to spearheading LinkedIn's explosive growth across the Nordics and advising top-tier leaders, Benjamin identified a critical inefficiency: organizations were present on digital platforms but rarely converted that presence into strategic advantage or measurable ROI. This realization ignited The Insiders, his mission to bridge this gap, transforming digital presence into a powerful engine for business objectives and empowering teams to execute by putting people at the heart of everything.
Benjamin's career is defined by a consistent track record of high-impact strategic leadership. At LinkedIn Nordics, he didn't just grow the public sector business; he revolutionized it, driving it to become the fastest-expanding segment. He served as a pivotal strategic advisor to the leadership of major Nordic organizations, fundamentally reshaping their digital footprint and embedding LinkedIn as an indispensable tool for communication, marketing, and talent acquisition - even within traditionally risk-averse or slow-to-adapt sectors. His expertise lies in expertly navigating complex organizational structures to deliver demonstrable value.
Beyond the public sector, Benjamin’s influence extends across various industries. His tenure at EBSCO Information Services showcases his exceptional sales acumen, where he consistently shattered targets, earning multiple "300% sales club" distinctions and successfully launching groundbreaking products into new markets. At AirPlus International, he established and scaled best practices in account management, consistently identifying new business opportunities. Uniquely, Benjamin, coming from a family with a distinguished legacy in winter sports, also brings a valuable dimension from sports management, where he has orchestrated and executed impactful sponsorship strategies, leveraging digital platforms to amplify brand visibility and engagement.
A true global strategist, Benjamin's proficiency spans five languages, rooted in his North Italian Alps heritage and enriched by diverse experiences across the USA, England, the Netherlands, Austria, and Italy. This profound international perspective and linguistic agility are critical assets in driving comprehensive digital change across varied organizational cultures. As a dynamic leader and an indispensable advisor, Benjamin empowers organizations to not just undergo digital transformation, but to dominate their digital ecosystems, eliminate inefficiencies, and achieve unparalleled, measurable returns on every investment.
Benjamin is fluent in Swedish, English, German and Italian.
