Yesterday, 40 experts from various disciplines across the Aker group came together for the relaunch of Aker Expert Network 🚀 The network connects experts across the Aker group to foster collaboration and share insights, especially related to four strategic themes: (i) Clean Energy and Distribution, (ii) Carbon Management, (iii) Traditional Energy, and (iv) Digitalization and AI. As Aker's CEO, Øyvind Eriksen, noted from stage: "from the outside in, it can seem like Aker is a company focused on capital intensive investments. From the inside out, we're first and foremost a people business." Our greatest strength is our employees and their diverse knowledge. The Aker Expert Network represents a unique 'meeting of the minds' to foster collaboration, identify new business opportunities, and leverage expertise that is crucial to navigate the complexities of enormous strategic themes facing our industries 🤝 Aker Solutions Aker BP ASA Cognite Industry Capital Partners Aize Aker Horizons

In the words of our CEO, Øyvind Eriksen: "Stian brings a unique geopolitical understanding and experience that is highly relevant to foster the kind of collaboration models and strategic alliances that the energy transition will require." Stian will be an asset in navigating the interface between public and private sectors, which is central to Aker’s operations and overall development. We look forward to welcoming him to Fornebu in a few weeks.

Streamlining operations and creating shareholder value: Aker BioMarine ASA has entered into an agreement to sell its ownership position in the Feed Ingredients business, forming the new entity, Aker BioMarine Antarctic Holding II AS. The new venture will be jointly owned — 60% by American Industrial Partners and 40% by Aker Capital. Through the new partnership, Aker stays committed to a continued focus on krill-based ingredients for fish and animal feed.   The transaction creates significant shareholder value and is an important step in crystallizing value – and enables Aker BioMarine to sharpen its focus within the human health and nutrition sector. As a 78% shareholder in Aker BioMarine, Aker remains committed to Aker BioMarine’s growth and innovation. The transaction is expected to close during Q3 2024, pending necessary competition clearances. https://lnkd.in/dNetUWWt   #AkerASA #AkerBioMarine #StrategicMove #ValueCreation
