This summer, Johan Ansnes has held the position of summer intern at Storvik. He is studying Industrial Economics (IndØk) at Ås, specializing in Innovation, Sustainability, and Operations Technology. Throughout the summer, Johan has worked on our sustainability report while also being involved in research, analysis, and the development of commercial business models in several of our R&D projects, which are now nearing commercialization. Johan has also been security cleared by our main client, Hydro, and has gained thorough insight into how Europe’s largest primary aluminum plant in Sunndal operates, as well as Storvik’s crucial role in keeping production running around the clock. Johan himself says:
It has been extremely interesting to be so closely involved in strategic discussions and decision-making processes, and, not least, to be able to contribute something with direct value for Storvik. This has made my time here this summer particularly relevant and educational.
Stein Kjartan Vik, CEO of Storvik, has had the pleasure of working closely with Johan this summer and is impressed by his ability to quickly grasp complex issues and understand the broader picture—qualities that are essential for forming a solid decision-making foundation.
There is no doubt that Johan has a bright future ahead in the workforce—perhaps even at Storvik? We wish Johan the best of luck with the final stretch of his studies!
