Visionary impact
\nSidsel Norvik, Director, Nor-Shipping, congratulated the Seabound CEO on her achievement, noting: \u201cAlisha represents the very best of the next generation in ocean leadership\u2014visionary, driven, and wholly committed to making a real-world impact. Her work at Seabound is not only innovative, but deeply aligned with the core Nor-Shipping 2025 theme of #Future-Proof. We\u2019re incredibly proud to recognise her in Nor-Shipping\u2019s 60th\u00a0anniversary year.\u201d<\/p>\n
Erlend Holberg, Secretary General of YoungShip International, adds: \u201cAlisha\u2019s selection is a testament to the impact she\u2019s already made, and the potential she has to shape a more sustainable and resilient maritime future. The calibre of candidates this year was outstanding, so for Alisha to stand out speak volumes about her achievements. She embodies the type of leadership we need more of – solutions-focused, inclusive, and unafraid to challenge the status quo.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rapid progress
\nFredriksson has quickly achieved acclaim within the industry after co-founding Seabound in 2021 with the mission to tackle one of maritime\u2019s most pressing decarbonisation challenges – exhaust emissions. Under her leadership, the climate tech company has rapidly developed and deployed onboard carbon capture systems, starting in 2023 with successful sea trials capturing up to 80% of CO?\u00a0emissions on a 3,200 TEU container ship. In an innovative twist, Seabound has also demonstrated the viability of transforming vessel emissions into solid limestone for reuse. Fredriksson\u2019s work has earned her spots on the Forbes 30 Under 30, MIT Innovators Under 35, and the Women In Change Awards lists.<\/p>\n
Nor-Shipping 2025 is taking place now in Oslo and Lillestr\u00f8m, with a packed activity programme running through to 6 June. More than 50,000 global decision-makers are expected to participate, with around 1,000 exhibiting companies showcasing the very latest innovations, products and services in the maritime and ocean industries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
