Intern Focus
Sofie was born and raised in Stockholm, Sweden and is currently undertaking a Bachelor degree in Business and Economics, specializing in finance and accounting, at the Stockholm School of Economics. Sofie has
recently completed an internship within Corporate Finance at Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken (SEB) and last summer she completed an internship within the Finance Department at the Royal Bank of Scotland. These
internships have made her well prepared for the tasks as the Finance Intern of the Chamber. Being offered the chance to move to Philadelphia
and work at the Chamber, Sofie looks forward to learn more about the
American business culture and the relationship with Swedish companies.

Before Sofie was born, her family lived in Washington D.C. and the family has stayed in close contact with American friends and colleagues
throughout the years. With numerous visits back to the country, Sofie has
wanted to get a greater experience of the American culture, lifestyle
and business environment which is the reason for applying for an internship at the Swedish-American Chamber of Commerce. She is looking forward to experience all what Philadelphia and the Chamber has to offer.
Johanna was born in Stockholm, Sweden but has from a young age been
exposed to an international environment as she partly grew up in Germany, easily adapting to the German culture and language. Later on in life
she had the opportunity to return to Germany and pursued an internship
in marketing in Berlin. She has also lived and worked as an Au Pair in San
Francisco. Johanna has a Bachelor Degree in Business Administration and
Marketing from Jönköping International Business School, Sweden, and is
currently pursuing a Master of Science in Business and Economics with
a focus on Management of International Business at Uppsala University,
Sweden.
Johanna hopes to further broaden her knowledge and understanding of
international business while gaining practical experience in the field. She
is certain that her internship as a Marketing Manager at SACC Philadelphia will complement her academic studies and provide her with new
and insightful knowledge on how to facilitate business between the U.S.
and Sweden.
