Proud to be a Climate Ambassador for Oslo
“Oslo has the opportunity to be a role model and lead the world to become a more sustainable place to live. I want to be part of it!” Jonas Tesfu
With the goal to create new working relations and foster experience sharing on sustainable business development, the programme has connected experienced business leaders with young entrepreneurs. What all the 48 participants have in common is that they are in charge of sustainability in their companies. The Mentoring Programme has created a much-needed space for exchange and dialogue on the topic.
Participants have requested a continuation of the programme after 2019 and other cities are considering setting up similar programmes. Oslo Business Region will continue to facilitate existing mentor/mentee relationships and plans to extend the programme to other cities. Green business ambassadors In order to showcase companies that have made innovative and climate friendly choices, Oslo Business Region selected green business ambassadors.
Jonas Tesfu was one of the ambassadors. He has 15 years of experience in the start-up sector in the tech-, food, and fashion industry. He has also established Byspire, a green start-up, delivering locally grown sprouts to restaurants in Oslo.
