Nils van Dijkman newly appointed honorary consul

1/7/2020

Our member Nils van Dijkman has recently been appointed Honorary Consul General for Sweden in Amsterdam.  We therefore asked him tell us about his new role as consul.

What can we expect from you as a consul?
My role as the Honorary Consul General for Sweden in Amsterdam is to represent Sweden in The Netherlands. I will promote Swedish business and Swedish values and I will be the link between the consular district and the Swedish Embassy. In order to do that I will keep close connections with business and governmental organisations both in Sweden and The Netherlands. In that respect the function of the Dutch Chamber is very important; you are the Dutch connection for Business in Sweden.

What is your connection with Sweden?                                                                                                                                                    My mother is Swedish, so I’m raised with the Swedish culture, language, values and … amazing Swedish summers. We have a house in the Southern part of Sweden (Falsterbo/Skanör area) so we enjoy life and visiting relatives. Apart from private reasons I visit Stockholm, Göteborg and Malmö regularly for business purposes.

How are you going to combine your daily work with this new role?
In my daily working life I am a partner at Heussen lawyers and civil law notaries. I have been the Chairman of the Swedish Chamber of Commerce in the Netherlands between 2007 and 2015, so I know how to combine another role next to my work as a lawyer. The fact that I am heading the Sweden Desk of my lawfirm makes it easier for me to travel to Sweden. My experience is that when you really have a passion for something, it doesn’t feel as work. And I can easily say that I have a great passion for Sweden. I am looking forward to working together with the Board and I hope to meet my fellow members of the Dutch Chamber soon after the summer!
