Anna likes being close to decisions
Anna Herdenberg has been the Company’s internal lawyer for the last three years. As a lawyer at Precise Biometrics she works with the whole organization and enjoys this proximity and the opportunities to make quick decisions.
As the Company lawyer, what do you do?
A lot! All legal issues go through me, so it’s quite a wide spectrum. A lot of the information is related to the fact that we are listed on the stock exchange, such as issues concerning Corporate Governance, which can involve preparations for board meetings and Annual General Meetings. I work a lot with contract issues and support our sellers in negotiations with partners and customers. I also handle industrial and intellectual property rights, i.e. our patents, trademarks and patterns.
What did you do before?
I worked as a consultant at Awapatent for fourteen years with intellectual property rights, I was also responsible for our team of lawyers there towards the end. Part of my job was working with the processes of change in conjunction with major reorganizations. After that I was working for myself for a time and worked in a few different areas, human resources for example.
What was the attraction with Precise Biometrics?
I think I was looking for more of a generalist role – where I can have an influence in a wide range of areas throughout the whole organization. When I was asked, I had no hesitation in saying yes.
What is it that’s different here?
It’s very easy to move things ahead. Here everyone is accessible, we work close to each other over departmental boundaries and can make quick decisions when we need to.
How would you describe Precise Biometrics?
As a company in an incredibly exciting industry, with a flat organization, open-minded, and with personnel that have a high degree of competence and knowledgeability. I also like the fact that we a modern and flexible company. There are opportunities to influence the small things in the world around us, like in relation to sustainable thinking. I also feel a certain element of pride that the majority of the people on the board at Precise Biometrics are women, which is very unusual in listed companies.
