# 2 quick questions to johanna

 

> **WHAT ARE YOUR DRIVING FORCES?**

Create an equestrian brand that not only makes great products but also gives back and really makes a difference for their employees and girls in equestrian sports.

 

> **HOW DOES YOUR COMPANY WORK WITH SUSTAINABILITY?**

We produce as eco-friendly recycled materials as possible and hope that more in our industry will follow suit.

We work a lot to "give back" and donate money to selected organizations, for example, we gave EUR 40,000 to 'Ride against cancer' in October 2021.

**By women, for women**

 

With heart and brain, we want to inspire girls to dream big and dare to invest in themselves in a sport where men and women compete on equal terms. We hope that our products will motivate you to continue fighting to achieve your goals. When we develop our collections, we want them to breathe fashion, power and energy.

The finalists were vetted out through Founders Index based on historic performance, future potential and societal value.

Now the jury will decide the gold and silver winners of Founder of the Year Medium size Companies. To be awarded at the Founders Awards Gala at Stockholm City Hall on September 22.
