We say farewell to 2022 & welcome 2023.

I want to thank all blog & SoMe readers for an amazing – but strange year.

This year has demonstrated what the new world of trade looks like in a globalized economy with multiple crises running in parallell.

Global Trade 2.0 is different. It is digital & compliant – based on trust.

Strategic Customs planning is a key element of Global Trade 2.0 to provide predictability & resilience at safe & secure borders.

In 2023 we will see more of this

Happy New Year to customers, partners, colleagues & friends. See you all in 2023.

Today is the last day for Søren Skou as CEO of A.P.Møller-Maersk.

øren was one of the main reasons why I decided to follow KGH to Maersk after the acqusition. A real and genuine leader with an impressive ability for change. If there ever was a rile model as business leader – Søren is it.

Thank you Boss, you inspire us all – it has been a priviledge to serve with you.

Good luck in the future.

Today I wear this Santos shirt, my most precious football shirt in a large collection – with pride & out of respect for one of the greatest football player of all times, Edson Arantes do Nascimento, Pelé. The only player winning three World Cup titles so far.

My first memory of football was watching the World Cup final in Mexico 1970. It gave me the love of football for a lifetime.

i saw Pelé play live once with New York Cosmos in Malmö 1975. I have since then had the fortune to visit the beautiful country of Brazil many times. I fell in love also with the country, not only Joga Bonito.

I have watched football at Maracanã, in stadiums & at sport bars. I know what football means in Brazil & I know that all my friends in Brazil – the Brazilian people – today are in pain & are grieving for the greatest player. Now he is playing with Diego & they are having fun.
