Anders Grauslund has a burning passion for his ideas. That is why he has chosen to work in a large company, because the chances to carry them through here are better than as a private entrepreneur, he believes. That was the lesson to be drawn from working in Novozymes, where he as a student assistant took responsibility for a project – and succeeding in doing so.

Today, he is engaged in pressuring the universities to partake in more business co-operation.

“Very often I hear that people in the education system talk about educational standards as all that matters, and that cooperating with businesses is bad for these standards. But according to my experience, the exact same people who say this have problems explaining precisely what those educational standards are and why they would be jeopardized by cooperating”, Anders Grauslund says.
