”As Head of Business, Christa Lodahl's primary role is to build and maintain the local business service function. This must happen in close collaboration with the business community to ensure that the service, sparring and guidance we provide precisely reflect the companies” diverse needs and resources, says Peter Vesløv, Chairman of the Board of Business Center Bornholm, and continues:

”With Christa Lodal we have found a competent profile who can contribute positively to realising the visions and objectives set out by the board, which include helping to increase the number of private sector jobs and start-up businesses. This is to be achieved via optimal business services for the Bornholm business community – from the entrepreneur to the well-established enterprise – giving them the best conditions for development and growth.

"With Christa Lodahl, we are getting a head of business development who will help strengthen Bornholm's companies, ensuring that we continue to have an island with development and good employment,” says mayor and chairman of the board for Business Hub Greater Copenhagen's local branch, Winni Grosbøll.

 

”I am passionate about helping to create the best possible foundation for the business community and connecting companies and local business services in a valuable collaboration that can contribute to development and growth for businesses on Bornholm,” says the new head of business, adding:

”I have met some of Bornholm's business profiles, and I sense that a really good and positive development is well underway in Bornholm's business community. A business community that prioritises quality and has a noticeable local identity, where people remain true to their own and the island's profile, and I see this as a strength that we can build upon in future business promotion efforts. I am very much looking forward to rolling up my sleeves as Head of Business – from 15 May.
