Do you know a company that supports major Czech industries — automotive, manufacturing, and construction — with mission‑critical equipment?
It is Atlas Copco Group, our founding member (since 1995). Their transformative industrial technologies operate quietly in the background — keeping factories running, infrastructure growing, and entire industries moving forward.
Last week, an inspiring exchange unfolded at Atlas Copco Group’s Pankrác House premises, bringing together Fredrik Cederroth, Vice President of Holding Central and Eastern Europe, Petra Ševčíková, General Manager of the Shared Services Center, Romana Yang, Communication Manager of Holding Central and Eastern Europe, and Lenka Simerska, Executive Director of the Nordic Chamber of Commerce, to reflect on and explore these key topics:
🌱 Zero‑carbon commitment in absolute value and with strong KPIs
👩💼 30% target for women in leadership
⚖️ Gender Pay Gap Report 2025
🌍 A multicultural and inclusive work environment here in Czechia
🎓 Talent development through student engagement and partnerships such as with Masaryk University
💧 The global “Water for All” charity initiative — where employee donations are doubled by the company to expand access to clean water, including support for communities in Czechia during flood emergencies.
Atlas Copco Group is such a fascinating global–local success story. 🇸🇪 🌍
From powering 50% of the world’s beer production with its compressors to enabling 90% of global flat‑screen display manufacturing through its cutting‑edge vacuum technology, their innovations quietly shape everyday life around the planet. Globally, the Group:
