MMT´s founder Ola Oskarsson was one of the speakers during the Shipping Entrepreneur day at Lindholmens science park (Gothenburg, Sweden) on May 28th.
Ola had been invited as he previously won the Entrepreneur of the Year in Sweden and later represent Sweden in Monte Carlo. His speech explained that marine survey as an odd bird was not true. Hydrographic survey and discovering the ocean floor is not odd. Seeking adventure and exploring the ocean depths has been a pursuit of humankind throughout its history.
Ola also recommended that future entrepreneurs follow their heart, go against anyone who says you “cannot” and believe in their own and others’ ability. Everyone cannot do everything; to surround you with competent people and exploit the spontaneous meetings is the best business plan.
