From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Marcus Storch (b. July 28, 1942 in Stockholm) is a Swedish industrialist. He received an engineering degree from the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm.

Storch spent many years working for AGA AB, and was president and CEO of the company 1981-1996. He is today chairman of the Nobel Foundation, and a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. Storch has been critical of the degree to which Swedish companies (including AGA) have been taken over my foreign owners, and what he regards as an insufficient regeneration of companies within the country.[1]

Storch's father Hillel Storch was the chairman of the Swedish branch of the World Jewish Congress.[2] Marcus Storch is a well-known profile in the Swedish pro-Israel community.
