Kick-off for the Swedish Chamber Mentorship Programme 2024
We were thrilled to kick off the Swedish Chamber and Young Professionals Mentorship Program 2024 last week, together with the nine skilled Mentorship Program pairs joining the journey! The event started with an introduction by Mentorship Coach Hendrik Jan Guitink, leading the way with insightful guidelines. Mentees and Mentors were then divided into breakout sessions to map out personal goals and expectations, guided by former Mentee and YP Committee Member Malin Petrocchi, as well as Hendrik Jan. This was followed by the big reveal of Mentor-Mentee matches, after which the pairs had their first one-on-one chats to kickstart their mentoring journey.
Looking ahead, we are extending an open invitation to the Mentorship keynote lectures to all YP members, and welcome you to join these inspirational presentations and discussions. Seating is limited, so secure your spot today! Here’s a glimpse of what’s to come:
- with Niels Thijssen, Professional Leadership Coach and Facilitator
- with Kristina Zumpolle, Founder, Executive Coach, Facilitator, Keynote Speaker, and Jasmijn de Smit, Executive Coach, Facilitator
- with Candida Snow, Director of Snow Culture & Communication

Happy International Women’s Day: Inspiring Inclusion!
This year, International Women’s Day (IWD) emphasises the importance of diversity and empowerment in all aspects of society and underscores the crucial role of inclusion in achieving gender equality. In light of IWD, the Swedish Chamber of Commerce had the opportunity to join the French Chamber of Commerce for the Annual Women’s Luncheon on March 5. Together with more than 100 amazing attendees, we had the honour to listen to the inspiring and passionate story of H.R.H. Laurentien van Oranje and how she tirelessly contributes to the support of the Dutch Childcare allowance affair victims.
It was amazing to be surrounded and to meet so many incredible women supporting women. We thank Princess Laurentien for being such an inspiring example of female empowerment, and thank Sylvie Craenen and Noémie Abraini at the French Chamber of Commerce for organizing this event!
