Description

Episode three and we are connecting foiling to the great big world of transportation! Torbjorn Tornqvist is a sailor, he just happens to be head of one of the largest energy conglomerates on the planet.

We discuss his passion for the sport that lead to two incredible America's Cup campaigns with Artemis Racing and how he took the bold desicion to keep his design, engineering and science team together and create Artemis Technologies. He asked the question, "Where can we go with everything we've learned making Cup boas fly?" His answer? Let's take the efficiencies foiling offers and try for net zero ferries!

With orders now for ferries around Europe, Artemis Technologies has been trying to make a real impact on reducing fossil fuel consumption, pretty ironic coming from a guy who oversees some incredibly large oil holdings!

Torbjorn shares his philosophy on meaningful change, the areas where foiling intersects industries, how computer simulation can get us to efficient transportation solutions sooner and what he loves about sport and work. We find out what makes this crazy busy dude tick! I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I did!
