Going to Stockholm always feels like a window into the future. I was so pleased to meet with Spotify, many different new media entrepreneurs, and forward-looking media and news organizations, as well as, of course, the amazing Dow Jones team on the ground. Sweden was always a special place for me as I covered the mobile revolution as the Nordics correspondent for The Wall Street Journal—seemingly every home had a dotcom business plan on its kitchen table at that time. (In the early part of last century, Stockholm had more private phones than London.) Today, that entrepreneurial spirit lives on, having spawned huge global businesses like Klarna and Spotify.
