The plans promised a revitalization of the old Saab factory, additional jobs in Trollhättan and a perspective in the post-Saab era.
In the run-up to the visit, we had to create a questionnaire and submit it for approval. The founders Laurin Hahn and Jona Christians wanted to answer that, as promised.
