Change of board at the Blue bank.

Sædís is welcomed to his new position.

Recently, a change of board took place in the Blue bank where Sædís Ólöf Þórsdóttir took over from Katli Berg Magnússon as chairman of the board.

It can truly be said that the work of the Blue bank has been enriched by Ketil's involvement and loyal management over the years, and we owe him a lot.

So we say goodbye with: "see you later".

It is certain that his influence will be felt in our work in the future.

"I think it's a great honour to have been able to work with the team at the Blue bank for the past few years and take part in this great work. This spring we set a sharper vision for the work and want to be a center of creativity in the Westfjords. The Blue bank is a place for creative work for the residents of Dýrafjörður, all Westfjords residents and creative guests. Big ideas all start as seeds in our minds and I am convinced that Þingeyri and the Blue bank are a great place to create valuable ingenuity that creates value in good harmony with the environment and the people of the future. After four years as chairman of the board, I think it is right to hand over the reins to the next team and I have full faith that these good people will lift the work of the Blue bank to the next level. "

-Ketill Berg Magnússon

We are also very pleased to have Sædís in the same role.

A powerful, daring and fruitful leader who will leave his mark on the work in the years to come.

Her experience and resourcefulness will be a strong compass for us.

"The Blue bank has a special place in my heart since I participated in Start Up Westfjords in 2019.

In the past year, I had the honour of serving on the board of the Blue bank. It has been great fun to take part in shaping the Bank's strategy over the next few years and to follow closely the Bank's diverse projects, large and small, over the past 12 months. The future is bright for creative people in Dýrafjörður, creative Westfjords and creative guests. Next up will be Chairman of the Board and support Gunnar Ólafsson, the new Blue Bank CEO who will lead the Blue bank's gley to the melting pot of creativity in the Westfjords."

-Sædís Ólöf Þórsdóttir.
