Orkídea has achieved great success with the help of entrepreneurs and has received significant amounts of funding from the grant environment for South Iceland.
Sveinn Aðalsteinsson, CEO, introduced Orkídea’s activities in an electronic presentation on Wednesday, November 20th, and the project focuses on energy efficiency and sustainability in food production. Orkídea began operations in 2021, but the project is an interdisciplinary collaborative project on innovation in South Iceland and the goal is to pave the way for entrepreneurs and innovation opportunities that are created in South Iceland as well as in Iceland as a whole.
Sveinn reviewed the opportunities that have arisen since Orkídea began operations, defines innovation in human terms, and gives good advice to entrepreneurs. You can watch the presentation by clicking here .
