Meet Mikael Bergman
Entrepreneur, Consultant, Creator
As the founder of Bergman CC, I've dedicated my career to helping startups and established businesses navigate the complex landscape of modern entrepreneurship. My journey spans many roles in major companies, consulting, music creation, and writing – each discipline informing and enriching the others.
What sets me apart is my belief in open collaboration and knowledge sharing. Rather than hoarding business insights, I've made it my mission to create a platform where ideas flourish through collective wisdom and creative partnerships.
My approach combines strategic thinking with artistic sensibility, bringing a unique perspective to every project and partnership.

Music: The Creative Catalyst
Music isn't just my passion—it's a powerful lens through which I approach business challenges. The discipline required to compose, arrange, and produce music translates directly into strategic thinking, creative problem-solving, and collaborative leadership.
Through my musical projects, I explore themes of inspiration, resilience, and human connection. These aren't just songs; they're sonic experiments in emotional resonance that inform how we build authentic relationships in business and life.
I believe music has the power to break down barriers, spark innovation, and create the kind of collaborative energy that transforms good ideas into extraordinary outcomes. It's this creative sensibility that I bring to every consulting engagement.
Books & Thought Leadership
Sharing Knowledge, Inspiring Action
Writing allows me to distil years of entrepreneurial experience into actionable insights that can benefit the broader business community. My books focus on practical strategies for building resilient businesses whilst maintaining personal authenticity and creative vision.
Each publication represents my commitment to open knowledge sharing—the belief that successful entrepreneurs have a responsibility to lift others up by sharing what they've learned. These aren't just business books; they're invitations to think differently about success, leadership, and the role of creativity in commerce.
Through writing, I explore the intersection of business strategy and human psychology, offering frameworks that help leaders make better decisions whilst staying true to their values and vision.

We help organisations navigate the complex landscape of digital tools and platforms, ensuring that technology investments align with business strategy and actually improve operational efficiency. Our creative background brings a unique perspective to user experience design and digital customer engagement.
Every digital transformation project begins with understanding your customers' needs and your team's capabilities, then designing solutions that feel natural and intuitive rather than forced or overly complex.

Our community approach emphasises quality over quantity, focusing on creating environments where deep conversations can happen and lasting partnerships can form. We believe that the best business opportunities emerge from authentic human connections.
These gatherings often blend business discussion with creative activities—perhaps a songwriting session that sparks innovative thinking, or a collaborative art project that reveals new approaches to problem-solving. The goal is always to create experiences that are both productive and genuinely enjoyable.

Our approach to sustainability goes beyond compliance or public relations—we help identify opportunities where environmental and social considerations actually enhance business performance and customer loyalty. This might involve supply chain optimisation, waste reduction programmes, or community engagement initiatives.
