Viking Wind nominated for the SDG Tech award 2021

The SDG Tech Awards is an annual celebration of sustainable technologies gathering startups, SMEs, and corporations to form a cross-sector community of like-minded companies. It is not just an award show that celebrates and provides a platform for green technologies, but a multi-phase program that connects these action-taking members of the community to facilitate the green transition.

Since Viking Wind fulfills three of the SDGs (United Nations sustainable development goals) – 7, 9, and 13, it seems like an apt nomination and a thumbs up for a small company.

The SDG Tech Awards is an annual celebration of sustainable technologies gathering startups, SMEs, and corporations to form a cross-sector community of like-minded companies. It is not just an award show that celebrates and provides a platform for green technologies, but a multi-phase program that connects these action-taking members of the community to facilitate the green transition.

So there are other benefits to gain even if you don't win the SDG award

First, it was a privilege to be nominated for an event that is the largest sustainability award in the Nordics and a tandem event to COP26, in a time where climate changes are on top of the agenda of all world leaders. And being the largest award show of its kind in Scandinavia, a nomination was able to generate goodwill that cannot be bought. It also allowed mingling with peers and stakeholders.

The goal of the SDG Tech Awards is not only to provide a celebratory platform for green technologies but also to allow the nominees to form a community of cross-sector innovators.

The 3rd edition of the SDG Tech Awards was held on Wednesday, November 10^th, 2021. Unfortunately, Viking Wind didn't win in its category but we are still proud of the nomination for the award.
