Åsa Zetterberg new Director of the IT&Telecom Association
IT&Telekomföretagen within Almega welcomes Åsa Zetterberg as the new Director of the Association. Åsa has previously worked, among other things, as head of section at the department for digitization at the Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions, SKL. She comes most recently from a position as Chief Digital Officer for the Swedish Government and from her own company Zettigo AB.
- "I feel extremely happy and excited about my new role as Director of IT&Telecomföretagen. I will push for an even stronger Swedish digital sector. With innovative, competitive and growing companies in the IT and telecom industry, we in Sweden will have a strong engine for the development of the entire business community and society at large. This will benefit our growth, welfare and sustainability," says Åsa Zetterberg.
- "We are very pleased that Åsa Zetterberg has chosen to take on the role of Director of IT&Telekomföretagen. Not least Åsa's solid knowledge in the IT field makes her very suitable for the task of taking the association into the future. IT&Telekomföretagen will continue in its role as the leading force for the digitization of Sweden, says Pär Fors, Chairman of the Board of IT&Telekomföretagen.
- As the new Director of the Swedish IT & Telecommunications Association, Åsa Zetterberg will play a central role in creating good conditions for an industry that is becoming increasingly important for Sweden. It is a matter of improving the supply of skills to the industry at the same time as Sweden needs a strong fiber expansion to maintain its digital leadership position and ensure the promotion of free data flows within the EU. IT&Telekomföretagen is one of the socially important unions within Almega, which has an important mission to improve the conditions for its member companies, says Anna-Karin Hatt, CEO, Almega.
Åsa Zetterberg will take up the post of Director General of IT&Telekomföretagen on May 23 this year. She succeeds acting Director Anne-Marie Fransson.
