Lisa Yang and Samuel Stenberg's journey began in Ireland, where they were studying and fell in love. Later, they got married and settled in Stockholm. After a few years, Stenberg was sent to Hong Kong as an expat to serve as the CFO of Securitas System's Asia business. At the age of 35, he was promoted to CEO of the company's Asia arm. Stenberg and Yang spent over five years in Hong Kong and China before deciding to move back to Sweden for the sake of their sons.
