About Me

Roger Samuelsson is a Swedish entrepreneur who owns 68% of Switzerland-based SHL Medical, the world's largest maker of autoinjectors. He moved to Taiwan in 1988 and cofounded the firm a year later, after several years shipping local goods including boxing gloves back to Sweden. Swedish private equity firm EQT acquired a 31% stake in SHL Medical in 2020; it now owns 32%. SHL Medical was a pioneer in autoinjectors for home administration of drugs and its customers include Novo Nordisk, Amgen and Pfizer.
