EIT InnoEnergy Scandinavia welcomes top executives from TotalEnergies

On May 16th, 30 top executives from TotalEnergies visited our office in Stockholm, Sweden to discuss best practices when it comes to innovation, green transition and corporate culture.

TotalEnergies’ engagement for a sustainable future

TotalEnergies (former Total) is the French energy major, also shareholder of EIT InnoEnergy. Formerly a classic oil & gas giant, the company is now massively investing to transform its business and organisation into a major player in the energy transition.

A “learning expedition” for 30 top executives

One of the most critical aspects of this transformation is about people. And the role of senior leaders is seen as critical to drive such change. We therefore welcomed this week to our office in Stockholm a group of 30 top executives from TotalEnergies who will be at the forefront of the company’s transformation to discuss Sweden’s best practices when it comes to innovation, green transition, leadership and corporate culture. Sweden is indeed considered has an ideal learning lab, being at the forefront of the energy transition, home of entrepreneurship and innovation, and strong of corporate practices based on collaboration.

Sharing EIT InnoEnergy’s achievements and successes

At this occasion, Kenneth Johansson, CEO of EIT InnoEnergy Scandinavia, shared how our company – in just 10 years of existence – has succeeded in delivering innovations in sustainable energy and generating both value and impact. “Our track records show that making a positive impact on the energy sector and environment at large while also driving economic growth, revenues and job creation in climate deep tech is possible,” he said. The group also met with several start-ups and scale-ups from our portfolio – SurfCleaner, Cascade Drives, CorPower Ocean, Northvolt and H2 Green Steel – with the objective to be confronted to and inspired from various experiences while reflecting on different ways of operating.

 

“We very much appreciated this opportunity to act as a source of reflexion and inspiration, and are keen on supporting more corporations in accelerating their transformation towards a sustainable energy future”, commented Kenneth Johansson.
