Leifur A. Kristjánsson joins our Advisory Board

Íris Baldursdóttir
CEO & Co-founder

We feel very privileged to welcome Leifur A. Kristánsson, Co-founder and CTO of Ankeri, as a new member on our Advisory Board. Leifur's unique experience of entrepreneurship as Co-Founder of Ankeri and CTO of the company since it's start in 2016 and prior experience as Director of Technology and Engineering at Marorka, is highly valuable for us and we see many parallels with the data driven solutions for the merchant shipping sector and our objectives in the electricity market. We look very much forward to our fruitful collaboration. A warm welcome to you Leifur!

We were curious to know what caught Leifur´s attention with regards to Snerpa Power´s innovative solution in the electricity market. This is what he said:

„As an important medium for energy, the world‘s electricity generation is a source for a large part of the global greenhouse gas emissions. The importance of maximizing the efficiency of existing resources and speeding up the energy transition has therefore never been as urgent as now.“

Leifur's unique experience is highly valuable for us and we see many parallels with the data driven solutions for the merchant shipping sector and our objectives in the electricity market.
