"We can't take Sweden's success for granted."

That's the message from Jacob Wallenberg, Chairman of Investor, in our latest podcast episode. He reflects on why Sweden must raise its ambitions to stay competitive in a time of rapid change and global uncertainty.

The episode highlights the need for long-term investment in infrastructure, from rail and energy to digital networks, and why stronger collaboration between public and private sectors is essential. Jacob also shares his perspective on unlocking private capital and building a more resilient, future-ready Sweden.

"Can we really afford not to electrify?"

That's the question Kristian Ruby, Secretary General of Eurelectric, puts at the heart of this conversation in our latest podcast episode. Electrification comes at a cost, but the cost of inaction may be far greater in terms of climate, competitiveness, and energy security.

We discuss the urgent need to modernize Europe's electricity grids, the barriers to electrification, and how policy, investment and technology must come together to accelerate the green transition.

We also explore how AI and data centers are reshaping energy demand, why electrification is a matter of European competitiveness, and what the Nordics are doing right.

Aviation is here to stay, but it must transform.

In this episode, we're joined by Abraham Foss, CEO of Avinor, the backbone of Norway's aviation system, operating 43 airports across the country. We explore the critical role aviation plays in regional connectivity, how the sector is recovering after the pandemic, and Avinor's bold roadmap towards decarbonisation through electric aviation, AI-driven operations, and sustainable fuels.

We also discuss the intersection of resilience, geopolitics and innovation, and what it takes to lead in one of the world's most complex infrastructure networks.

In this episode, Christian Doglia speaks with Olli Sipilä, CEO of Gasgrid Finland, about how gas infrastructure is evolving to meet the demands of a zero-emission future.

Finland has one of the world's most ambitious climate targets: carbon neutrality by 2035. Achieving it will take more than electrification. It will require a fundamental rethink of how we produce, transport and use clean energy.

They discuss how geopolitical events are reshaping the energy landscape, the Nordic Hydrogen Route, the rise of biomethane, the impact of incidents like Nord Stream and Balticconnector, and why infrastructure investment is essential to long-term energy security and industrial competitiveness.

What happens when global trade is shaken by pandemics, tariffs and geopolitical shifts? In our latest episode of Nordic Infrastructure: Behind the Decisions, we sit down with Eryn Dinyovszky, CEO of Yilport Nordics, a Jersey-born seafarer turned Nordic port leader who has spent over 20 years in shipping and logistics across the US, Europe and the Middle East.

Eryn shares how ports sit at the heart of the green transition, why the Nordics are leading on electrification and sustainability, and why she believes Sweden doesn't need 52 ports, but a few strong, secure and future-ready hubs.

Are container ports adapting fast enough, or struggling to keep up?

Few people have led a country through a financial crisis and then gone on to advise the world's largest investors. In this episode, we sit down with Gordon Bajnai, CEO of Campbell Lutyens and former Prime Minister of Hungary.

With his rare experience at the highest levels of politics and global finance, Gordon offers unique insights into how shifting geopolitics, technological change and investor appetite are reshaping infrastructure.

We explore why global capital is turning to the Nordics, how smarter public-private partnerships could unlock growth, and which megatrends will shape the decades ahead.

Data centers are growing fast, but are they part of the climate challenge, or the solution? In this episode we sit down with Peter Michelson, CEO of EcoDataCenter.

He shares how the company is setting a new standard with facilities powered by 100% renewable energy, delivering 98% lower carbon emissions than global benchmarks, and reusing excess heat to support local communities.

We also explore the Nordic advantage with strong grids, a cold climate and green power, and how the AI boom is reshaping the digital infrastructure landscape today.

What does it take for a bank to go from fossil legacy to green leadership? In this episode, Kjerstin Braathen, CEO of DNB, joins us for a conversation on transition finance, ESG recalibration, and the financial sector's role in shaping real-world change.

We talk about sustainability as risk management, the rise of transition loans, carbon markets, and the critical role of infrastructure in decarbonizing the Nordics. Kjerstin also shares her personal leadership journey, from growing up in a family business to leading one of Europe's most influential banks and what it will take to keep DNB, and the Nordic region, ahead in a rapidly changing world.

Can the Nordics lead the global green transition or are we at risk of falling behind? In this episode, Daniella Waldfogel, CEO of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce, shares a wide-ranging perspective on competitiveness, climate leadership, and capital.

She discusses why the Nordics are still viewed as global frontrunners, what sets the region apart, and why infrastructure, cross-border collaboration, and political stability matter more than ever. Daniella also shares her personal journey and an optimistic take on what it will take to turn ambition into action.

How can carbon capture and storage become a real climate solution at scale? In this episode, host Christian Doglia is joined by Anders Egelrud (Stockholm Exergi) and Martin Lundby (Celsio) to explore two of Europe's most advanced CCS projects. They discuss what it takes to turn CCS into infrastructure, how policy and public-private partnerships make it possible, and why long-term sustainability requires both emissions reduction and permanent carbon removal. From carbon markets to AI and global potential, this is the future of negative emissions, straight from the decision makers building it.
