Save the Date – ISPO World Congress 2025 in Stockholm
Christoffer Lindhe – IC2A Inspirational Lecture (https://www.ispo-congress.com/en/programme/keynotes/)
Christoffer Lindhe is a triple amputee, a former Paralympian swimmer and the founder of his own prosthetic company Lindhe Xtend, based in his home country of Sweden.
At the age of 17, Christoffer lost both his legs as well as his left arm in a train accident. After experiencing this trauma, focusing on competitive swimming gave him something to work for and became so much more meaningful than athletics.
By engaging with the amputee community and becoming an advocate for them, he found a real purpose in life. After gaining a master’s degree in product development engineering, Christoffer decided to start his own company making user-friendly prosthetics, employing his own experience to drive change in everyday life for himself as well as for other amputees.
With his #4 ranked YouTube channel about life as an amputee, Christoffer provides tremendous inspiration to countless people as he shares his personal experiences with the global limb-loss community. Christoffer founded the AmpisLiv Association in Sweden, which recently merged with Momentum in Norway. Both organisations are members of the international umbrella organisation IC2A and strong supporters of those living with limb-loss. Last year Christoffer also became a member of the board at IC2A
