Krissie Berthelsen Winberg, board leader of Grønlands Erhverv, and Jens-Fredrik Nielsen, chairman of Naalakkersuisut, open the conference by giving a status of the country one year after the election.
It has been a wild year, is the conclusion from both.
– The world looks completely different, both for better and for worse, says Jens-Frederik Nielsen.
In addition to talking about the USA, geopolitics, elections and the reshuffles that have taken place internally in Naalakkersuisut, they also talk about what the whole conference is about: the future of Greenland’s business life.
– Almost all of our exports come from fishing, and as Christian Keldsen said in the intro, we must diversify our economy, says Jens-Frederik Nielsen and continues:
– We have gradually started this work.
Ahead of naalakkersuisut lies a great deal of work to create new and better frameworks for the business world, he mentions in response to a question from Krissie Berthelsen Winberg.
– Local value creation, no matter where you live in the country, is also important, he points out.
Krissie Berthelsen agrees:
– We must be better at taking care of those in society who have it most difficult, and we must find the solutions, says Krissie.
– I would like to thank you for standing firm on our values and what we want as a country and people, reads her concluding comment.
