With more than 25 years of global finance leadership under his belt, Ingmar Berg brings a steady hand and sharp strategic mind to the most complex corners of growth-stage and investor-backed businesses. As a Partner and Fractional CFO in TechCXO’s Finance Practice, he works with companies navigating scale, transformation, and pivotal growth and capital decisions.
Ingmar has served as CFO for public, nonprofit, PE-backed, and family-owned organizations across digital health, SaaS, education, healthcare, and professional services.

Most recently, Ingmar was CFO of Vertex Education, leading the financial operations of over 20 entities generating more than $380 million in revenue. He modernized financial processes, trimmed the month-end close to under one week, and led three acquisitions in one year. His capital markets work secured more than $170 million in public financing and improved the organization’s credit rating, generating long-term cost savings and institutional confidence.

He is also an active angel investor with Boston Harbor Angels, a board member of the Council for Aid to Education, and a former board member of Resia Travel Group.
