Swedish establishment of the Latvian humanitarian organization Ziedot

Novare's CEO Fredrik Hillelson and SAS Sweden's former CEO Anders Ehrling will establish the Latvian humanitarian organization Ziedot in Sweden.

Ziedot.lv is an Internet portal for charities that make it possible to use the Internet to help fellow human beings. Ziedot.lv offers a convenient and secure way to donate money to carefully selected and controlled charity projects. On the site you can also see how the project develops to ensure that the contributions have reached their goal. Large and small donations are welcome (1 LVL = 15.35 SEK).

Charity Portal Ziedot.lv is the result of a collaboration between the foundation "Ziedot" and Swedbank, with the goal of promoting positive social change. Thanks to this cooperation Ziedot.lv do not need to charge any commission or fee for the donations. 100 percent of the contributions go directly to the intended purpose. Through support from Novare, which are helping businesses and individuals to grow, ziedot.lv has been translated into Swedish.

Latvia is just 150 kilometres from Gotland, but the lives of many who live in Latvia are completely different from our own. In our neighbouring country a large number of elderly, sick or poor are suffering from poor living conditions and savings in society. Everyone pays the price for the economic crisis and the ones suffering the worst are those who were already weakened.

Novare Public Search now integrated within Novare Executive Search

Novare Public Search was launched in mid-2007 to commence the recruitment of senior management staff for positions in the public sector in Sweden. Since its formation, Novare Public Search has mapped the market and developed a very large client base. The company has succeeded in signing basic consulting agreements with major public organizations and carried out a number of recruitment assignments.

During the build-up period we have learned that decision-making processes in the public sector are often much longer and have come to the conclusion that integrating the business activities of Novare Public Search and Novare Executive Search would strengthen our offering to the public market and also realize valuable synergies.

As of November 1, 2008, Novare Public Search’s activities have now been combined with the operations of Novare Executive Search in order to meet demand for recruitment services within the Swedish public sector in a more effective manner. In connection with this integration process, Novare Public Search’s CEO (President or Managing Director), Annika Billström, has left Novare and we thank her for all her past efforts to help us develop the public sector recruitment market.
