Invite to New York from Ban Ki-Moon

A couple of months ago I got a letter from the president of the United Nations, Ban Ki-Moon. He wanted me to come to the Big Apple to celibrate the 10 year Leaders Summit of UN Global Compact together with CEO’s and presidents of the UNGC community world wide. The event takes place at the same time as the Swedish Midsummer Feast so I really had to think twise about participating. Not really… of corse I booked the UNGC 10 Year Summit without hesitation. It’s not every day I get a personal invitation from Ban Ki-Moon. I’ll write about the meeting here on my blog during the event. Also a Swedish magazine has asked me to write about it for their big CSR edition in September. I’ll keep you posted.

Christian Ahlberg is CEO at Maxibit WorldwideAB. I was born 1970, the same year Jimi Hendrix died. I started with Maxibit in the company in 1995 as a designer, and since then I've worked in graphic production, sales, shipping and finally CEO. Before working with Maxibit I started a men's fashion store and was self employed for three years and before that been working as a wood shop teatcher for a year and I also studied at the University of Uppsala. I love outdoor activities such as fishing, skiing, water sports, sailing, skating and of course spending time with my family and friends. If it isn't fun it's not worth it! So start showing your teeth in a big smile every day even if you're wearing brases!
