Hos Mangfold lønner seg mer enn du tror A/S hjelper vi ledere med å identifisere og motvirke ubevisste holdninger i ansettelsesprosesser. Vi jobber for at du ikke skal gå glipp av verdifulle perspektiver – fordi et annerledes navn og en ukjent bakgrunn aldri bør stå i veien for kompetanse. Når du som leder bare rekrutterer mennesker som likner på deg selv, risikerer du å svekke både innovasjonsevne og markedsforståelse. Du kan miste kontakten med nye kundegrupper og oppleve lavere medarbeidertilfredshet. Derfor finnes vi. For at du skal gjøre smartere valg – neste gang og hver gang. For kundene dine. For ansatte. For styret. For eierne dine. (Og for Norge, om du bryr deg om det)

Aqua Bio Technology AS (ABT), a Norwegian publicly-traded company, is revolutionizing the skincare industry with its innovative lines of premium, sustainable skincare products and cosmetic ingredients. Its establishment dates back to 2000 when the founders saw the potential of commercializing residual by-products from the manufacturing and collection of hatching fluid from salmon eggs, by-products with no other known uses. One of the products ABT developed from this was Aquabeautine XL. In 2008, ABT was listed on Oslo Axess (now Euronext Expand). ABTs current portfolio of skincare products is an embodiment of premium quality and sustainability. The products are formulated with a strong focus on natural active ingredients, delivering a minimum concentration of 10 times that of traditional skincare products, with some products reaching more than 90% active ingredients. The companys portfolio features four exclusive skincare lines - Seiðr Skincare, Seiðr Clinique, Moana Skincare, and B natural - all of which are designed and manufactured to cater to the diverse needs of skincare enthusiasts worldwide. Today, ABT has established itself as a leading provider of natural skincare solutions for both consumers and professional users. ABT is continuously looking for distributors to ensure expansion of the distribution of its products and has already entered into various strategic partnerships for its premium cosmetic lines. With its commitment to providing high-quality, sustainable skincare solutions, ABT continues to set new benchmarks in the industry.
