– Maria Kjaer, Office Manager, SEB – Helsingborg & Höganäs
Why are you choosing to be an H22 partner?
Helsingborg’s H22 initiative represents ambition and courage in finding new ways forward. We believe that this initiative is creating opportunities for better and more effective solutions. And who knows, we could even be part of seeing innovations that have a great impact. In this context, we as a business bank can find our place, with our belief that ambitious individuals, entrepreneurial thinking, and innovative companies and organisations are the key to creating a better world.
In what way will your involvement contribute to the development of Helsingborg and other cities?
In order to bring about meaningful and sustainable changes, we believe what’s needed is both the combined experience and drive of businesses, organisations, and people, and also financial strength. One of our important roles is to finance and facilitate the solutions of tomorrow and help them get up and running already today.
In what way can Helsingborg be used as a test bed for your organisation and innovations?
We believe that collaborative development is the most successful, and in many respects, this is how we continuously prioritise our work. In Helsingborg, we see the potential to test new ways of financing social and green initiatives intended to benefit the city’s development and future, and thereby its residents.
How is your organisation using the potential of digitisation in the making of a smarter city?
A great deal of our own development in recent years has been digital in nature, which has led to new insights and experience on which to build. Continuing developments within digitisation are creating new possibilities to understand and see different trends and future scenarios. This increases the potential to make smarter adjustments and more informed priorities in terms of new investments and initiatives. We believe this creates more user-friendly and sustainable solutions for everyone.
