Nellie Wartoft is a Swedish entrepreneur who launched knowledge infrastructure solution Tigerhall in 2019, revolutionizing how professionals learn from one another in the real world. Under her leadership, Tigerhall has quickly gained traction with users across 32 countries, and employees in 12 markets. Nellie has raised over $10 million in venture capital from visionary investors including Sequoia Capital and Monk's Hill Ventures, and Tigerhall's customers include global Fortune500 firms in technology, FMCG, professional services, and financial services.

Prior to founding Tigerhall, Nellie was a top biller at Michael Page, where she led the Sales & Marketing practice and saw firsthand the issues in talent development and enterprise learning, and how the technology used in corporate learning led to employee dissatisfaction and disengagement in their own professional development. Her experience led her to launch Tigerhall, which bridges the skills gap by providing actionable insights from industry experts, or Thinkfluencers, delivered in ways that leverage common user behaviors familiar to people from their favorite social apps.

Nellie has been named on the 2021 Tatler Gen T list of Future Leaders and was recognized as one of the Top Entrepreneurs to Watch in 2023 by the International Business Times. She was also a Swedish National Champion in Skeet shooting in her teenage years.

Nellie is an accomplished speaker and regularly presents at large events and global forums such as the CLO Exchange, HRTech Asia, SMF, and several CHRO Summits across the United States. She currently serves as non-executive director on the boards of the Swedish Chamber of Commerce Singapore and the SGTech Digital Transformation Chapter - the largest industry association for technology companies in Singapore.
Nellie has always been a huge advocate of social mobility across the world. This belief is rooted in the fact that everyone should have the opportunity to reach their life goals and become successful at what they do, regardless of their background or circumstances. As she always says, "Where you come from should never, ever, get in the way of where you want to go."
