The Nomination Committee of the Swedish Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce the proposed candidates for election to the Board of Directors for the year 2025.
All Members are warmly invited to attend the Annual General Meeting on Wednesday, 28 May, to formally support the election of the new Board Members and extend appreciation to the outgoing members for their dedication and valuable service.
Board Candidate: Ellis-Jan van den Hout, Managing Director, SKF Netherlands
Recently appointed as Managing Director of SKF Netherlands, Ellis-Jan van den Hout is leading the company’s strategic focus on driving sustainability transformation across the industrial sector.
With a background in engineering and extensive experience in sales and business development within B2B environments, Ellis-Jan has long been focused on enabling cleaner technology solutions—advancing product performance that is efficient, durable, repairable, and ultimately, recyclable.
Having spent much of his career within SKF, he brings a deep appreciation for the Swedish leadership ethos—grounded in innovation, sustainability, and long-term impact. These are values he looks forward to further championing as part of the Swedish Chamber’s Board of Directors.
We look forward to introducing Ellis-Jan, together with his fellow candidates, at the upcoming AGM.
