WIN - Winning Innovation

RÄDDNINGSTJÄNSTENS ROLL I EN FÖRÄNDERLIG OMVÄRLD
- Hur säkerställer vi att allt fungerar när det gäller?

Den 15 oktober bjuder WIN och RISE Research Institutes of Sweden in till en dag på RISE brandlabb i Borås om framtidens beredskap, resiliens och operativa förmåga.

När omvärlden förändras ökar kraven på räddningstjänsten och andra samhällsviktiga verksamheter. Klimatförändringar, energiförsörjning, civilt försvar, resursbrist och nya typer av samhällsstörningar ställer krav på både beredskap och innovation.

På scen:
- Lynn Ranåker, Myndigheten för civilt försvar
- Patrik Kruse, WIN - Winning Innovation
- Joakim Franzon, AutoStore
- Jonatan Gehandler, RISE Research Institutes of Sweden
- Carl von Eckerman, NatLink
- Jonatan Green, Sjukvårdens Larmcentral VGR
- Tomas Bodeklint, RISE Research Institutes of Sweden

Fler talare släpps löpande.

Dagen avslutas med en rundtur på RISE brandlabb, inklusive batterisäkerhetslabbet och testanläggningen för elektromagnetisk kompatibilitet.

Praktisk info:
- 15 oktober 2026, 09:00–15:00
- RISE Hus 1, Brinellgatan 4, 504 62 Borås
- Eventet är kostnadsfritt och frukost, fika och lunch ingår.

Sista anmälningsdag är 2 oktober. Anmäl dig och säkra din plats!

PATRIK KRUSE VALD SOM NY STYRELSEORDFÖRANDE I WIN

Vi är glada att välkomna Patrik Kruse som ny styrelseledamot i WIN! Med över 25 års erfarenhet som utvecklare, företagsledare och rådgivare inom bolagsstyrning – ofta i gränslandet mellan små innovativa bolag och stora kunder – tillför Patrik en viktig kombination av strategiskt helhetstänk och innovativ detaljskärpa.

Patrik har ett djupt engagemang för problemlösning, teknik och samhällsutveckling, och ser styrelsearbetet i WIN som en möjlighet att stärka kopplingen mellan forskning, innovation och samhällsbehov.

”Många av våra samhällsproblem och utmaningar kan lösas med befintlig kunskap och teknologi. Vi måste bara bli bättre på att koppla ihop forskning och innovation med resurser och behov. WIN jobbar målmedvetet med detta vilket jag tror är en förutsättning för att lyckas. Jag ser fram emot att vara en del av detta för vårt samhälle avgörande arbete.”

Med detta tackar vi Kenneth M Persson för flerårig, betydelsefull insats i styrelsen.

Varmt välkommen Patrik – vi ser fram emot att arbeta tillsammans!

We welcome Maximilian Pangerl to the WIN Team!

Max will take on the role as Stakeholder Manager and Innovation Scout and we are confident that his contributions will strengthen our purpose and add lots of value to our members.

We invite you to join us in welcoming Max! Reach out, introduce yourself, share your stories or needs. You'll find our contact information here: https://winway.se/contact/

An introduction greeting from Max:

Hello WIN Community! 👋

My name is Max, and I'm joining WIN as a Stakeholder Engagement and Innovation Scouting Consultant. I'm on board to bring stakeholders together for Inter-Organizational Collaboration and Business Development. I want to expand the WIN Network and deliver maximum value to our member organizations.

A bit about me: I am originally from Germany and completed my bachelor’s in management of renewable energies there. After that, I moved to Sweden and earned my master’s in leadership for sustainability from Malmö University, Sweden.

I've also had the opportunity to manage low-tech circular waste management facilities in the tropical paradise of Bali, Indonesia. Sustainability isn't just a buzzword for me; it's a way of life. Check out the project here: MPH-Merah Putih Hijau

When I'm not busy with WIN, you can catch me wearing another hat as the co-founder of Cohabit, a circular furniture rental startup. What started as a class assignment quickly transformed into an exciting startup venture.

I’ve been given the nicknames "Sunshine" and "Max-power." Apparently, I tend to bring good vibes and embark on new projects wherever I go. It's in my nature!

I'm genuinely excited to embark on this journey with WIN and all of you amazing members. Let's connect, collaborate, and make a positive impact on the world together! Feel free to reach out, say hello, or share your own sunny anecdotes.
