Märtha Rehnberg
MÄRTHA REHNBERG is a climate freak by heart, political economist by training, entrepreneur and policy-advocate by practice. She is Co-Founder of DareDisrupt, specialized in a responsible disruption and exponential technologies. Märtha’s drive lies in creating better visions for the future. For her, it’s not about a crystal ball, or about predicting the future. It is rather about understanding how our dreams and visions about the future have a performative effect in the present. If our dreams are big enough and vocalized smart enough they attract attention, talent, capital and eventually – they self-actualize.
