Going Digital in Fashion

24/11/2016

 
Picture
 ​On the 23rd November we then finally had the Orange Table Going Digital in Fashion with over 45 people attending. Wendy Heijne shared her story about how her start up is building on new technological possibilities allowing the final customer to participate directly in the design process. Just like it was before the industrial revolution where standard size low cost confectionary was first introduced.
What was new a year and half ago, is dated today
​Anna Hedlund from journalist, blogger and co-founder of Stil och Technik, Anna Zofia Rzewuska from Bird & Bird law firm’s commercial and IP practice and Sarah Pehrsdotter, a former CEO of a children’s wear company and start-up consultant, participated in the pannel and shared their (very different) perspectives. 

​​More than half of the attendants put up their hands saying the would buy on-line and considered the possibility to tailor individual pieces extremely attractive. But there is a critical step from showing  interest and the actually buying. The primary challenge of every new start-up.
​

Anna Hedlund pointed out that things move very fast; what was new a year and a half ago is dated today. But consumer behaviour changes more slowly. Sarah Pehrsdotter highlighted the difficult balancing between being low cost, lean and agile in the startup phase and the subsequent challenge speed to scale.  More things coming according to Anna Zofia Rzewuska, amongst others 3D printing and advanced robotics in fashion. But Wendy’s challenge for now is to create more brand awareness and stimulate trial.

A great evening with a nice informal atmosphere and lots of opportunities to make new connections. 

We wish Wendy every success in her new venture, but she certainly left the evening upbeat and with new ideas.  To get a photo impression, click play below or view all photos at the event photo album

Executive Lunch at Handelsbanken

18/11/2016

 

Interesting outlook on our economy at the Svenska Handelsbanken Executive Lunch

Picture
The Dutch Chamber of Commerce in Sweden is looking back on a very well-organized and highly appreciated Executive Lunch on November 14, that was hosted by the Chamber's premium member, Svenska Handelsbanken.

​Mr. Stefan Nilsson (Chairman of Subsidiaries) opened the luncheon with warmly welcoming the participants, and addressing the Ambassador of the Netherlands to Sweden, H.E. Mrs. Ines Coppoolse. Mr. Anders Bouvin (Group CEO) held an inspiring speech about Handelsbanken's many differentiators and corporate values. Mr. Claes Måhlén (Chief Strategist Capital Markets) elaborated on the main geo-political events of the recent past with potential impact on the world economy. Mr. Jens Wiklund (newly appointed CEO Handelsbanken Netherlands) highlighted the bank's corporate success in the Netherlands and its further growth ambitions in this relatively new home market of the bank.

Picture
The Dutch Chamber would like to thank Svenska Handelsbanken for hosting this great event, as well as for the interesting presentations and excellent lunch at the bank's corporate headquarters.  ​

Netherlands Embassy Göttgatan 16, Stockholm

A peek into the daily life at the embassy

In August 2015, Ambassador Philip de Heer was replaced by Ines Coppoolse, and upon her arrival she had to start preparing straight away for the EU presidency of the Netherlands (first half of this year). A good moment for discussions on what the Embassy and its staff are doing. Please meet Ambassador Ines Coppoolse and Trade & Innovation Officer Sigrid Westman.
we are trying to punch above our weight ..

​A quick introduction :
​

I have met my Swedish wife in Amsterdam and 10 years ago we moved to Sweden and started a family. 


After many international jobs I decided it might be a good idea to learn the language and I started working for Swedish companies. Last year I started my own company based around Location based marketing (with the use of iBeacons and Geofencing) Currently I am very busy with implementing such a solution at Fotografiska in Stockholm.

Thanks to the Orange tables I have already met many people who helped me with their experience and input and I am looking forward to continue this great interaction with fellow ’Nederlanders’!

Get Happified with Carl-Johan Look

It’s only since 2013 that Carl-Johan Look and Fredrik Nilarp started up ‘Happify’, an advertising & communication agency with 13 employees, located in the heart of Stockholm. Clients are Accor Hotels, Volvo and Swecon, just to name a few. And let’s not forget Transavia and KLM as KLM is also how Calle (Carl-Johan) came into contact with the Dutch Chamber.
