The Conscience
Some see the world in black and white and others see it in color. Linnéa sees it in Technicolor. Not surprisingly, our Swedish-born marketing and strategy leader’s color spectrum has many shades of green. A conservationist who cares about things great and small, Linnéa makes a difference in the world, leaving only footprints from her running shoes. This isn’t just talk for our resident yogi... juicing, plant-based eating, and marathon-training are just the start. Linnéa is frequently contributing to the firm’s most meaningful initiatives, from turning customer data points into actions to driving high-level strategy—perfect for someone who sees the full spectrum.
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. Ralph Waldo Emerson
Linnéa Jungnelius is Chief Growth Officer at Acertitude and one of the firm's founding team members. For more than a decade, she has been a driving force behind its growth, building the brand, defining go-to-market strategy, and cultivating the relationships that have made Acertitude a trusted partner across the private equity ecosystem.
She rose through roles of increasing impact across marketing, strategy, and business development before stepping into the CGO role, a trajectory that reflects both the firm's accelerated growth and her own.
Today, Linnéa leads commercial strategy, market development, and strategic partnerships. She is the architect of the firm's community platforms — including the Brilliant People Podcast, Talent Table series, and Talent Circle — built to connect and empower the investors, operators, and exceptional executives shaping what's next.
Swedish-born and based in New York City, she is a five-time marathoner, an avid skier, and a devoted student of yoga, books, and brilliant people. She runs toward challenges, on the roads and off them.
