In 2018 a Buddhist monk finds himself in a Swedish university library, when approached by a student asking who he is and why he is there. Their ensuing conversation created the initial spark for the vision, that would gradually evolve into MetaProvide.

We are now an international team of programmers, product developers, administrators, communicators, and that (now former) monk and IT student that started it all. We’re excited to make a difference through the services that we’re building. So, please allow us to introduce ourselves.

The Team

Björn Magalhães

Product Owner and Partnership Manager

I enjoy Eastern & Western philosophy, introspection, MOS 6581/8580 & demoscene, goodness & friendship and a good story.

Henry Bergström

Tech Department Manager

My Standup Comedy career is going down the drain but at least I am a decent Brazilian Ju-Jitsi practitioner

Håkan Bergknut

Financial Manager and Legal Adviser

In my free time I like to ride my motorcycle, spend time with my family and travel both near and far.

Giuseppina Esposito

Provider and VAs Relationship and Communication Manager

I enjoy spending time in nature, cultivating relationships, artistic expression. Experience has taught me that sometimes all one needs is a genuine smile a listening ear, and when possible a big hug.

João Pedro Santos Simões Raposo

Product Development Manager

I would start a perfect day by the ocean surfing and fishing, then in the afternoon have the opportunity to dance in par at a beautiful ballroom.

Tiago Lamelas

Product Research Manager

Never says no to a good conversation or a big wave.

Marcela Muñoz Báez

Human Resources Manager

Passionate about social impact and development. Curious about culture and social context. I dance everything from Tango to Waltz, even though Waltz is a bit boring.

Magnus Walbeck

System Administrator and Developer

As long as it is open source and related to servers, I'll do it!

Igor Miranda Oliveira

Junior System Administrator

I do everything regarding servers. On my spare time I like to cook, tinkering, travelling and taking pictures. But to be honest, it's mostely servers...

Giuliana Bueno

Marketing and Branding Manager

I like sport!

Carlos Alba

Meta-Coordinator

Doing + with -

Danna Beatriz Dias

MetaFriend Product Lead

I love talking about innovation, after life and politics. I am always challenging myself either professionally or trying to cook, especially making birthday cakes and desserts. I enjoy spending time with my family, friends and traveling.
