Maritime CleanTech is significantly strengthening our services with the return of the funding expert.
Marte Jensen is a familiar face in our world-leading network for new and clean solutions for the maritime industry.
– We feel privileged to have Marte Jensen back. She is a Maritime CleanTech veteran – she knows the industry challenges, our partners, and, maybe most importantly, they know her. Now, we have significantly strengthened our competence in assisting our partners’ innovation processes and linking them with funding schemes in Norway and Europe, says Ada Jakobsen, CEO of Maritime CleanTech.
Jensen started as a trainee at Maritime CleanTech in 2015 and played a key role in coordinating projects and connecting partners. She soon became our EU advisor and played essential roles in establishing EU projects like TrAM, ShipFC, and Flagships.
Her dedication to clean maritime innovation helped secure millions in funding for our partners from Norwegian and European funding schemes.
Three years
Now, she is back in Maritime CleanTech after three years at Rogaland County Council, where she led a unit working with regional funding programs.
– I´m thrilled to return. I can´t wait to meet all my friends from our partners again. I´m also excited to meet the many new partners that have joined in recent years and to learn more about the technology discussions and how to speed up the transition. I´m impressed with how much Maritime CleanTech has grown as an essential arena for technology development during the last three years. And now, many of the projects are proven in the market. For example, the TrAM project turning into Medstraum, says Marte Jensen.
Jensen will oversee relationships and deepening expertise in national and European funding programs focusing on research, innovation, and development as Maritime CleanTech´s new Project and Funding Manager.
– I look forward to discuss the the many possibilities in the funding schemes, and will encourage our poartners to reach out for discussing project ideas, Marte Jensen adds.
