Our mentors

We asked our mentors what 'Own the Future' means to them as individuals. Here's what they said.

Kajsa
For me "own you future" is about going after what you want and at the same time not being afraid to ask for help to get it. It is also very much about having the courage to go your own way and learn along the way.
Redha
Own the future means aiming big and being a role model, while daring, encouraging, empowering, and challenging myself and others in doing so.
To take ownership of inspiring, including, empowering and growing both others and myself to create the future we want to live in.
Owning my future - for me this is about making conscious and deliberate choices, without sacrificing on my values.
‘Own the future’ to me means that you are curious, engaged and actively lean in, to take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves and that meet your personal and professional ambitions in life.
Malin Stråhle
On a personal level, this journey has encouraged me to consistently reflect on what I want to achieve, why, and with whom, and it has given me a clear sense of purpose and direction. I regularly check in with myself to ensure I am in an environment I have consciously chosen—one where I can continue to learn and thrive.
Malwina
Owning the future means daring to dream and having the courage to step into the unknown, trusting that no matter the outcome, I will learn, grow, and become a better version of myself.
Neetika Ahuja
Owning the future means creating a diverse network, where we can empower women to follow their passion with a purpose to innovate a brighter future.
MinJuan
To me, owning the future means embracing the unknown with courage and curiosity, tackling toughest challenges that create your own luck. It’s about surrounding yourself with extraordinary, ambitious, and kind people—learning from them, lifting each other up, and growing together.
