Kristian Lennert, chairman of the board of GrønlandsBANKENs Erhvervsfond, says:

Anders Olsen, chairman of the board of NunaFonden A / S, says:
“Back in 2012, Ivalo & Minik Fonden was founded by NunaFonden with the aim that more Greenlandic education applicants in higher education should travel the world and improve their skills.
