An all-female representation of electric transportation 

What’s great to see is the overwhelming response of female leaders across industries, particularly when it comes to sustainability. Not only are women gaining more career traction in this space, but also are seen to hold many executive and c-level positions focusing on corporate responsibilities and building strategies for emissions reduction. 

Kristen Siemen, Chief Sustainability Officer at General Motors

Siemen previously spoke to us at Sustainability LIVE New York on the subject of electrification and provided an overview of GM’s commitments to the cause.

From Sustainability LIVE London 2023, we also have Hultberg who was a key stakeholder in the conversation of Women in Sustainability at last year’s event. This forum really highlighted some important points to consider among women when entering a high-level career.

New to the show in 2024, Klarén will join the conversation having spoken at COP28 on some crucial points within the EV industry. With sustainability at her core, she’s a great fit for Polestar with her commitments aligned to those of the business. Further points on this can be found in an upcoming issue of Sustainability Magazine—in the lead up to the conference.
