Mixed into this Speak is Rikke’s own entrepreneurial story on pursuing a dream: Making it possible to efficiently install offshore wind farms without public subsidies. This she successfully pursued – with start-up Founder Lars Blicher – by building the world’s largest wind farm installation vessels.
