A huge thanks to our former CFO, Ole Stein
Our former CFO, Ole Stein, is heading for new job opportunities in the private sector after 10 years with Access2innovation managing projects, securing timely admin, and financial reporting as CFO. He has been hosting numerous successful delegation visits, and hands-on sparring with our members.
