We are thrilled to announce that Carbfix is in the spotlight with three esteemed nominations at the Nordic Women in Tech Awards 2024! 🌟 Rising Star of the Year - A huge congratulations to our Chief Scientist at Carbfix, Dr. Sandra Ósk Snæbjörnsdóttir, A cornerstone in the field since 2012, Dr. Snæbjörnsdóttir has made significant strides in advancing our understanding of carbon sequestration by proving the feasibility of mineralizing injected CO2 into the subsurface. Her efforts have traversed the pilot, demonstration, and industrial phases of the project, marking her as a standout figure in the industry. 🌟 DEIB Champion of the Year - Carbfix's nomination in this category is a testament to our steadfast commitment to diversity, equality, inclusion, and belonging. We take immense pride in creating a culture that not only talks about values but truly lives them. At Carbfix, we celebrate a significant milestone in gender equality: Women hold 57% of positions in the Executive Team Women constitute 51% of the Carbfix Team Women represent 60% of the Board of Directors. This composition reflects our dedication to balanced representation and our proactive stance in ensuring that no gender makes up more than 60% of any level within our organization, from the workforce to the Board of Directors and leadership roles. 🌟 Innovator of the Year - Since 2012, Carbfix has been at the vanguard of CO2 mineral storage, not merely as innovators but as proven implementers. With more than 90 thousand tons of CO2 already transformed into rock in Iceland, we are scaling our ambitions with the Coda Terminal, designed to mineralize up to 3 million tons of CO2 each year. Our journey has been driven by a single mission: to confront the climate crisis with practical solutions. As the pioneer of CO2 mineral storage operations, Carbfix leverages proprietary technology that epitomizes innovation — safe, permanent, and economically viable for reducing global CO2 emissions. Let’s celebrate our collective strides towards a sustainable future and the innovative spirit that drives us.
