Educatius has appointed David Holmdahl as Global Sales President, a strategic step that strengthens the organization’s continued growth and reinforces its mission to make international high school education more accessible and impactful worldwide.

Holmdahl brings more than a decade of senior leadership experience in global education. Most recently, he served as Chief Commercial Officer at Innoedu AG, where he led international commercial strategy and growth in the e-learning sector. Prior to that, he spent over ten years with EF Education First, holding several senior leadership roles within its high school exchange programs (J-1 and F-1). As Senior Vice President of Sales, he oversaw global student recruitment across 13 markets and helped thousands of students pursue study-abroad opportunities.

His background aligns closely with Educatius’ mission to provide transformative educational experiences around the world.

“I’ve seen how participating in High School Exchange Programs shape young people, their families and local communities,” said David Holmdahl. “They teach us to connect with people from different backgrounds, to see the world through new perspectives, and to step confidently into the unknown. That kind of learning stays with you for life – and it’s more important than ever. Educatius takes that impact even further through its initiatives supporting access to education and environmental stewardship.”

“David’s extensive experience in both education and international sales is exactly what Educatius needs as we continue to expand,” said Björn Bengtsson, CEO of Educatius. “He understands the heart of our mission and how to scale it responsibly. We’re very pleased to welcome him to the team.”

In his new role, Holmdahl will collaborate with regional directors and Educatius’ international sales offices to drive growth, strengthen global partnerships, and advance the organization’s strategic priorities.
