We believe that by strengthening entrepreneurial skills and unlocking the power of people’s inner drive, great things can happen! At yesterday’s Engineering Day, Scania proudly presents the Engineering Entrepreneurship Award to celebrate innovation and bold ideas in technology. This year’s award goes to AirForestry and their co-founders Olle Gelin, Caroline Walerud, and Mauritz Andersson for their groundbreaking work in developing harvest drones that revolutionise forestry practices. Motivation: “This year’s winner pioneers a unique technology paired with a strong value proposition and business model, offering significant growth potential while radically enhancing forests' ability to capture carbon.” By recognising innovators like AirForestry, we aim to inspire engineers across industries to explore their entrepreneurial spirit and develop ideas that can shape a sustainable future. Presenting the award is Linda Fragner, Innovation Lead at Scania, who says, “With this award we want to inspire people within engineering in all types of industries to develop their entrepreneurial abilities and dare to push through their ideas.” Engineering Day isn’t just about awards, though – knowledge sharing and inspiration are also important parts of it. Marie Bemler, Technology Strategy at Scania, holds a much-appreciated 'hero talk' called “The Power of Storytelling: How talking about AI is driving the future”, discussing how visions not only shape our future goals but also guide our decisions today. In addition, Elisabeth Hörnfeldt, from Sustainable Transport Solutions at Scania, and Viktoria Kindesjö, Co-founder of Elain - Data driven insights for greener transport, lead the Masterclass “HITS: From idea to realisation with entrepreneurial spirit and AI as enablers”, providing their insights into how to use research, data, and the latest trends to develop future-ready solutions for the transport industry. #EngineeringDay Ingenjörsdagen
