During this year’s Almedalen Week, several of co-workers from Wallenius Marine, Wallenius Lines, Wallfast and Soya Group are on site and participate with their expertise. We are also organising our own seminar on how shipping can ensure its future competitiveness and whether the industry is ready for a green transition.

Feel free to get in touch and talk to one of us!
