Discover some of the backstory of our recent investment journey in Fortifai.

Thank you, Angela R Holter, for introducing me to Abbey Lin. You perfectly captured what we at RunwayFBU represent and the entrepreneurs we want to support. Abbey's deep expertise in ESG and compliance, together with the complementary technical expertise of En Abdulahu and Mustafa Adam, aligned well with our investment values.

Our engagement wasn't straightforward from the start. Initially, I asked Abbey to reconsider certain priorities, which are crucial to us as an investor. I expected her to return half a year later, but instead she pleasantly surprised me with a 2-week turnaround. Since then the hustle had shown no signs of slowing down. Jetting between Oslo and Silicon Valley multiple times, Abbey has been available and her commitment seemed to be unwavering, regardless of jet lag. 👏

Throughout this process, I connected with Abbey's colleagues and clients, including, Kimberly Mathisen from HUB Ocean, Silke Hitschke from Telenor, Agata Butterweck from Aker Solutions, Julie Berg previously with SLB and Aker Carbon Capture Joint Venture. Their feedback has been uniformly positive. Thank you to each one of you!

And joining us for the journey, we have some amazing old and new friends - Gisle Østereng from Startuplab, and Yonca Braeckman from Impact Shakers.

I may have omitted some names, for which I apologize. To all new entrepreneurs, remember that reaching your goals often requires a strong ecosystem and network. As you build your business, also focus on cultivating meaningful business relationships, like the one Fortifai has now built around itself.
