Norwegian ski athlete superstars Petter Northug and Jarl Magus Riiber have joined the myOnvent family as investors.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both found the company through myOnvent board member Bj\u00f8rn Magne Bryn, who joined myOnvent in 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

myOnvent’s CEO Bj\u00f8rn Christian N\u00f8rbech spoke about this exciting news:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re very excited to have Petter and Jarl Magnus join the team. They are both proven winners who\u2019ve shown an ability to reach the absolute pinnacle of their individual sports. Their perspectives will be invaluable contributions as we continue to build our team and culture by focusing on performance and excellence.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aiming for greatness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Riiber and Northug are at different points in their careers, but both saw myOnvent as a great growth opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Northug is one of the most highly decorated cross country athletes of all time. He retired in 2018 having won 13 World Championship golds, two Olympic golds as well as two cross country world cups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI strive for greatness in everything I do. It doesn’t matter if it’s skiing or as an investor, I want to win. I have great faith in the myOnvent team\u2019s ability to realize our ambitions of becoming a global market leader in the online and hybrid events and community industry\u201d said Northug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Fantastic opportunity”<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Jarl Magnus Riiber is one of the brightest stars on the Nordic Combined circuit. He has been dominating the competition for several years. The young athlete still has plenty left in the tank, and when the opportunity to invest in myOnvent came along, he did not hesitate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis was a fantastic opportunity. While my main focus is Nordic Combined, I am also starting to explore other interests. I have to start thinking about what I want to do when I retire. myOnvent is building a platform for the future, and I\u2019m excited to see what the team is able to accomplish\u201d said Riiber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well positioned to grow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The two stars joined myOnvent in 2021, along with other friends and family that were given a chance to invest. Now, our CEO Bj\u00f8rn Christian N\u00f8rbech is working on the next round of funding to facilitate further growth in the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve built an incredible foundation for our future growth by investing in our platform and people. We aim to gain market share by supporting high end clients in solving complex challenges. A great example is the AI for Good neural network platform, which we\u2019ve built for the UN\u2019s International Telecommunications Union\u201d said N\u00f8rbech.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
