Elin Segerlind new communicator at Wargön Innovation

In November, Elin Segerlind took over as new communicator for Wargön Innovation after Frida Jonson, who is now moving on to her own company Ord och insikter.

- We thank Frida for her excellent work with us and wish her the best of luck. At Wargön Innovation we always want to encourage entrepreneurship! says Markus Danell, Business Manager at Wargön Innovation.

With his new addition to the team at Wargön Innovation, Markus Danell believes that they have hit the right note.

- Elin is a top recruit who can contribute with both sharp communication and to Wargön Innovation's ambition to be a national and international top environment for industrial textile sorting and circular transition. We believe that she has a good background for this, but above all a warm, driven and humble personality that fits well into the team, says Markus Danell.

For the past four years, Elin has worked as a member of parliament in the Environment and Agriculture Committee with responsibility for issues such as circular economy, recycling and textile management. Prior to her parliamentary assignment, Elin worked as a communicator and journalist, including for Swedish Radio.

- "I am incredibly happy to be a part of Wargön Innovation. It gives me the opportunity to combine my experience and knowledge from the Swedish Parliament with my experience as a journalist and communicator, it can't really be better, says Elin.

Wargön Innovation works with the sustainable materials of the future and is a leading test and development environment for industrial sorting and valuation of materials and products in circular cycles. This is an area where development is rapid and the aim is clearly set on tomorrow's sustainable society, which was what attracted Elin to apply for the job at Wargön Innovation.

- Our work at Wargön Innovation has the potential to make a real difference, the textile industry is currently responsible for large emissions and we need to change both our production and consumption patterns of new textiles. I want to be a natural part of the driving force that exists here and that works for a sustainable future," says Elin.
