Yara International ASA President and CEO Svein Tore Holsether has been elected as Chairman of the Board of the Confederation of Norwegian Enterprise (NHO) for a two-year period. The NHO is Norway’s largest organization for employers, with a membership of 25,600+ companies ranging from small family-owned businesses to multinational companies in most sectors. It is a leading voice of business and industry in the country.
“It is an honor to be elected President of the Confederation of Norwegian Enterprise,” said Holsether. “The green transformation presents enormous opportunities for Norwegian businesses and industry. Norway has access to green energy sources, but we must act quickly.
“The next four years will determine the next 40 years,” he added. “I believe that large companies have a special responsibility to take the lead and help smaller and medium-sized companies in this transition. I want to dedicate my time as President to promoting sustainable economic growth, job creation, and green export-oriented industry.”
