Just ready for another incredible Nordic EV Summit, a conference I've been attending for years now. It's incredible to see how this event has grown from its humble beginnings, reflecting the exponential growth of the electric vehicle industry itself. Back when I first started attending, EV numbers weren't exactly small, especially in Norway, which has long been a global leader in EV adoption. However, despite Norway's pioneering efforts, acceptance and resistance to EVs persist worldwide. Yet, events like these give me hope. They bring together innovators, policymakers, and enthusiasts who are all committed to accelerating the transition to sustainable transportation. Together, we tackle the challenges head-on and drive towards a cleaner, greener future. Shoutout to Christina Bu for her unwavering support over the years! Let's keep pushing boundaries together! 💪 Here's to continuing the momentum and overcoming obstacles on the road to widespread EV adoption! 🌍⚡ #NordicEVS #SustainableFuture #ElectricVehicles" https://nordicevs.no/

We’re often asked, “Why focus on reinvention instead of just innovation?” The answer is simple: reinvention is a diverse portfolio of initiatives, with innovation being just one of nine types of reinvention. It’s not only about creating something new but also about preserving what’s best from the past and building upon it. By blending experience with fresh ideas, reinvention fosters sustainable, future-focused change. It connects the past, present, and future, providing a holistic approach that drives lasting impact across the entire business. Ready to think beyond innovation? Reserve your spot today!
