Presentation at Solna Gymnasium upper secondary school

On March 25,  Daniel Kärrholt, CEO of The Swedish Textile Service Association, met a class at Solna Gymnasium upper secondary school. For the fourth year, Daniel introduced the possibilities in the textile service sector. It became a hands-on lecture in business administration. This time the students had been given the task to study the new Scandinavian Quality Control model website in advance, to facilitate discussion and input.

A warm thank you to all the engaged students and Professor Rickard Vinde for the interesting conversations, and the nice picture.
