C2U in Norway
The four founders of C2U Norway; Jonas Pettersson, André Knüppel, Bjørn Eirik Bergland and Jan Granaas, worked together at REC Wafer Norway when the global solar energy industry entered a turbulent period in 2010. Going from one of the fastest growth companies in Scandinavia to focus on cost and survival, was an extraordinary situation and challenge to the company management.
The strategy for REC had both structural and cultural characteristics. Working with methods like Lean, Agile, change management and other tools for improvement paid off on a global basis.
When REC moved operations and head quarters to Asia in 2011, the four founders decided use their experience and start a consulting company aiming to help Norwegian companies to become more competitive.
In 2012, C2U Norway was established.
