– I am impressed by Qvantum’s development and look forward to contributing with my experience from previous clean-tech start-ups. It was above all Qvantum’s strong vision for the energy solutions of the future that caught my interest, and I am really looking forward to being part of the next step in the growth journey, says Sandra Trittin.
In addition to Sandra Trittin, the Board of Directors of Qvantum consists of experienced leaders with deep expertise in industry, energy and sustainable development.
