The company provides world-class services for physical and electronic mail, EDI, parcels and internet banking & payment services. Sweden Post has developed address directory services for physical and email services, both available and well used by customers.

Stefan’s position requires involvement in most Post organisations, such as International Data Post, Universal Postal Union and IPC. Mr Lindholm is an active member of Commercenet Europe, Swebizz – the Swedish association for internet trade and a few EU-projects.

Together with colleagues in Finland, Norway and Denmark, he initiated the creation of the Nordic Post Security Services group, now called the PSS and since some time a base for the UPU global security services.

Stefan invented the combined “street and internet email address”, named @post and later on the idea of the .POST TLD to support the internet becoming an everyday global infrastructure for the everyday person.

On behalf of Sweden Post his aim is to enable Posts with similar strengths in the Information Technology generation as they have in the physical world. Particularly, to ensure that customers of any Post are provided a global and interoperable secure service throughout the world, like what is offered in today’s physical services. This goal demands that the Posts unify under basic IT standards for electronic services, .POST being one, equal to what they have always done to secure interoperability of physical services.

Prior to Stefan joining the Sweden Post, he spent many years with Xerox, Ericsson and AT&T, in company management and senior executive positions. Stefan’s job positions have allowed him and his family to spend approximately 10 years outside of Sweden. Many of these years in England with some shorter assignments in other parts of the world.
