Biography
Jenny Lind?n Urnes is the chairman and owner of $1.9 billion (sales) Lind?ngruppen, which she inherited from her father in 2009.
The industrial group owns 50% of H?gan's AB, a leading maker of powdered metal, and Beckers, which produces industrial coatings.
Her father, Ulf G. Lind?n, a former Volvo executive, built up a private stake in H?gan's AB, and took it private in 1987.
Beckers, a former subsidiary of Volvo, came into the family's hands in 1985, when Ulf bought the company from his employer.
In 2013, under Jenny's command, Lind?ngruppen, together with a foundation linked to the Wallenberg family, took H?gan's AB private once again.
