Introducing Stiftelsen Kristian Gerhard Jebsen

Stiftelsen Kristian Gerhard Jebsen is established to honour the memory of Kristian Gerhard Jebsen and his contribution to Norwegian and international shipping and business.

The Foundation contacts potential partners itself. This applies to all kinds of projects. In this way, the Foundation’s funds can be put to effective use in projects that are in line with the foundation’s objectives and our partners’ strategies and priorities.
