Here's what some of our partners say
"We at Clarion Hotel Post choose with pride and joy to get involved in Opportunity Day! We work daily with strong values around diversity and inclusion and are convinced that our workplace is open to everyone. In order for both us and other companies in the hospitality industry to continue to grow, we must challenge traditional recruitment processes to find new talent. Opportunity Day offers us an opportunity to find our future colleagues, and we hope that our participation can inspire other companies to do the same.”
Anders Sköld, CEO Clarion Hotel Post
” Vi skulle inte klara att leverera välfärd om det inte vore för alla våra medarbetare. Många av dem har sin bakgrund i andra kulturer, något vi ser är en styrka och en stor rikedom för vår organisation. Vi ser också att vi behöver större mångfald bland våra chefer. Därför är vårt partnerskap med Opportunity Day en logisk satsning för såväl intern kunskapshöjning som breddad rekrytering.”
Svante Stomberg,
Stadsdirektör Borås Stad

Johan Bengtsson,
City Manager, Trollhättan Municipality

IFK Göteborg, with its strong network of partners and many supporters, has a significant opportunity to make an impact. We are therefore very pleased to join forces with Opportunity Day and act with strength to achieve our common goals.”
Elisabeth Anderton, Sustainability Manager IFK Göteborg
"At Scandic, we believe in the power of diversity and inclusion. By being a part of Opportunity Day, we want to continue creating opportunities where everyone feels welcome - just like at our hotels!"
Kristian Sandahl, Hotel Manager Scandic Crown & Number 25
"Länsförsäkringar Göteborg och Bohuslän is proud of its partnership with Opportunity Day. Our commitment extends beyond insurance and banking services. As a customer-owned company, we have a dedicated sustainability programme in which we actively take responsibility for giving back to the communities where our customers and owners live.

We are convinced that diversity is an asset that strengthens us as an organisation, fosters creative thinking and leads to more successful outcomes. We believe that by working together with other stakeholders, we can make the best use of the skills available in our local area and contribute to an inclusive and diverse labour market in the long term"
Lisa Bragée, Sustainability Manager, Länsförsäkringar Göteborg and Bohuslän
"People coming to work, and employers realizing the potential in diversity, are two critical building blocks for increased integration in Sweden. We can only solve this social challenge together, and it is therefore gratifying to see all the positive power that several actors create together through Opportunity Day. Alkompis is proud to be able to contribute to this important initiative"
Julia Agha, Alkompi's CEO
"In Nordic Choice we have over 170 nationalities. Think about it: 170! There are only 195 free states in the entire world. So if a guest comes from almost anywhere in the world, there is someone in the hotel who speaks their language. (…) Opportunity is, for me, precisely about this: to give someone an opportunity and to see those who came as a fantastic resource in our company.”
Petter Stordalen – Nordic Choice Hotels
Despite the economic situation, there are still many companies that want to recruit. It is an insane waste of resources that we then have competent people in Sweden who do not enter the labor market or do not work with the skills they have. We need to create occasions where these worlds can meet.
Rudolph Anthony, Rregional manager, Swedish Business Administration
"Over 50,000 people live in our neighbourhoods. For 25 years, Stena Fastigheter has worked with relationship management - a long-term and committed effort to create safe, inclusive and vibrant neighbourhoods where we take advantage of all the diversity that exists."
Anders Frisell, CEO - Stena Fastigheter Göteborg
"Provision of expertise is one of the absolute biggest challenges for us in the municipalities, perhaps the biggest. This at the same time as there is a great deal of competence that we do not take advantage of, partly because of our way of recruiting. It goes without saying for us in Härryda municipality to both be a partner to Opportunity Day and to participate with a booth in the job matching."
/Pia Alhäll, Municipal director, Härryda Municipality
”Diversity and inclusion are important for both industry and business. It leads to increased creativity, well-being and better decision-making, which enables the company to develop and become competitive. At the same time, it contributes to a broader recruitment base and increased attractiveness. Everyone is welcome and everyone is needed in the construction industry!”
Erica Steen, Business adviser on skills supply, Swedish Construction Federation
"At Eyes4Work, we believe in every person's potential. We are passionate about opening doors, providing guidance and giving everyone the chance to grow in the labour market. That's why we want to be part of Opportunity Day's work for greater inclusion in the labour market."

Stefan Jansson, CEO, Kraftstaden
"At Eidar, we are pleased to be able to collaborate with Opportunity Day to jointly highlight the importance of diversity and inclusion. These are key issues in our own operations but also in our meetings with our tenants. Segregation and exclusion is one of our major societal challenges and we know that the opportunity to work is crucial to bring about change. Through this collaboration, we hope to enable more meetings between job seekers and employers and contribute to positive development for individuals, companies and Trollhättan."
Anna Wänblom, Sustainability Manager, Eidar
”For us, it feels important and natural to contribute to increased inclusion and diversity in the workplace.

I look forward to inspiring and fruitful meetings and conversations and to being part of a future-oriented arena.”
Mikael Nordberg, CEO, Folkuniversitetet Uppdrag Väst AB
”Why reinvent the wheel when we can roll faster together? The partnership between Minälv and Opportunity Day is about simple maths: when we share platforms and resources, we reach more people and can make a real difference to inclusion in our region. We are linking arms to create good opportunities, break exclusion and inspire more people to see the doors that open when we dare to collaborate for real.”
Marcus Pallvid, Mine River
