In this instalment of Innovation Spotlight, we meet Lars Svensson, the co-founder and CEO of Nordic Forestry Automation (NFA). Last year, they were recognised by Swedish tech magazine Ny Teknik as one of Sweden’s most promising tech startups. In this interview, we will learn more about how NFA got started, and how their perception system technology makes the forestry industry more sustainable – not only for the planet, but also for the machine operators.

In Innovation Spotlight, we will shine a light on the inventors and entrepreneurs who are changing the world one invention at a time. In this instalment, we meet ATO Energy’s founders Peder Falkman and Elena Rakhimova, and get to learn more about the company’s inventive method to transform the energy grid market by increasing grid capacity. 

ATO Energy’s journey began in April 2024, when co-founders Peder Falkman and Elena Rakhimova realised that to continue their work of solving problems in the energy sector, they had to start their own company. Since then, they have worked hard with their team to develop a new software platform based on dynamic rating.
