Viktor Petersson

CEO / Co-founder at Screenly Inc

Viktor, a seasoned entrepreneur, initiated his journey in the business world during his college years. His first venture, YippieMove, emerged as a pioneering email migration service, setting the stage for his future successes. Demonstrating a keen sense for uncharted territories, Viktor then co-created Blotter, a productivity app for macOS that not only was bootstrapped but also climbed to the top 10 in the Mac App Store before its discontinuation.

Prior to the widespread adoption of remote work spurred by the COVID-19 pandemic, Viktor had already recognized the transformative potential of a decentralized workforce. He leveraged this insight to lead his early ventures, particularly Blotter, towards prosperity as bootstrapped operations, embracing remote-only models long before they became a global norm.

Following these successes, Viktor co-founded Screenly, where he currently leads as a visionary. Screenly, also a bootstrapped venture, was created with the ambition of developing the world’s first developer-friendly digital signage product. Under Viktor’s stewardship, the company has introduced revolutionary products like Anthias, the top-ranked open source digital signage solution, and Screenly’s flagship offering, which now powers over 10,000 screens globally. Viktor’s innovative mindset and relentless entrepreneurial spirit continue to propel the digital signage industry into the future.
