Leadership roles
Sandra Sundbäck has held various leadership positions also before working at Volvo. She has studied communication, sustainability and political science and has a background as moderator and professional speaker.
"For me, Paper Province is an important cluster for putting the bioeconomy and innovation on the map," she says.
Looking forward to learning
Paper Province is a world leading bioeconomy cluster with more than 100 member companies who work to find sustainable solutions that contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals. Sandra Sundbäck sees the membership issues as very important.
“The unifying power and expertise of more than a hundred member companies is an incredible strength. I am looking forward to learning more about everything that is being done within the cluster and can hardly wait to get started”, she says.
