Introducing Adam Svenningsson: Our New Event & Marketing Intern!

Who is Adam Svenningsson?

A 23 year-old Stockholmer, but since three years back a biking Lunda-student. I am social, energetic, and outgoing — and love connecting with new people from various backgrounds. I am also an avid hiker and a hobby musician; a regular golf-player and a casual footballer; a recurrent chess-player and an occasional cross-country skier. But few things beat organizing a festive party in good friends’ company and with great music, allowing yourself to let go of all your worries and troubles for a little while, as I recall some famous cartoon bear once put it.

What drew you to SACC-NE and Boston?

I have always had an international lens applied throughout my education, from elementary school right through to university – so I knew for a fact that I wanted to do an internship or exchange semester abroad. I was drawn to SACC for its extensive US business network, and through stories relayed to me by friends who had interned at the different chambers, who all spoke very fondly of it. And, Boston & New England: What is there not to love? Bostonian culture, with its stern and rugged shell but cozy and comforting inside; Watching a Red Sox game at Fenway Park; Experiencing the cozy quaint sailor vibe of Nantucket; Soaking up the academic atmosphere at Harvard and MIT – the list can go on and on…

What is a fun fact about you?

Whilst quarantined in my 16 square meter (170 sq ft) apartment during the pandemic, I taught myself to play the guitar to escape boredom. Reach out if you want to jam!
