During her tenure, she has been a driving force behind the company\u2019s development. CMP operates the ports of Copenhagen and Malm\u00f6 and ranks among Scandinavia\u2019s largest port operators.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBarbara has left a very significant mark on CMP. Under her leadership, we have safely navigated the Covid crisis, elevated the business to a historically high level with a turnover exceeding SEK 1 billion, and at the same time strengthened our position as a modern, green and commercially strong port operator. Together with the Board, Barbara has led the development of a new strategy, that will take CMP forward towards 2030. The strategy sets a clear direction for our commercial development, our role in the green transition, and our investments in critical infrastructure in the \u00d8resund region,\u201d says Chair of the Board, Claus Juhl.<\/p>\n<h3>Net-zero targets<\/h3>\n<p>Under Barbara Scheel Agersnap\u2019s leadership, CMP has strengthened its focus on sustainability, forming new partnerships, investing in innovative solutions and business models, and pursuing ambitious efforts to reduce CO\u2082 emissions from its own port operations. As a result, the company is now close to meeting its internal net-zero targets.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt has been a great privilege to lead CMP through a period with both challenges and opportunities. Together with skilled colleagues, customers, owners and partners, we have developed CMP to become a professional and future-proofed business. I am proud that there is a robust foundation to keep building on, towards 2030. The timing is now right for a new CEO to take over the baton and realise the full potential of that strategy which we have recently set,\u201d says Barbara Scheel Agersnap.<\/p>\n<h3>CEO until March 2026<\/h3>\n<p>Barbara Scheel Agersnap will remain in her position as CEO until March 2026 to ensure a smooth transition. The Board will now begin the process of recruiting a new CEO.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dCMP stands strong \u2013 commercially, strategically and organisationally. This is to a very large extent thanks to Barbara. On behalf of the Board, I would like to extend my sincere thanks to her for the collaboration and for her contribution to CMP and to the port sector in Denmark and Sweden, in general. We wish her all the best in her future endeavours,\u201d says Claus Juhl.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Copenhagen Malm\u00f6 Port has announced that Barbara Scheel Agersnap is stepping down as CEO after more than eight years in the role.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":596,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":{"format":"standard","override":[{"template":"3","parallax":"1","layout":"no-sidebar-narrow","sidebar":"default-sidebar","second_sidebar":"default-sidebar","sticky_sidebar":"1","share_position":"hide","share_float_style":"share-normal","show_share_counter":"1","show_view_counter":"1","show_featured":"1","show_post_meta":"1","show_post_author_image":"1","show_post_date":"1","post_date_format":"default","post_date_format_custom":"Y\/m\/d","show_post_category":"1","show_post_reading_time":"1","post_reading_time_wpm":"300","post_calculate_word_method":"str_word_count","show_zoom_button":"0","zoom_button_out_step":"2","zoom_button_in_step":"3","show_post_tag":"1","show_comment_section":"1","number_popup_post":"1"}],"image_override":[{"single_post_thumbnail_size":"no-crop","single_post_gallery_size":"crop-715"}],"trending_post_position":"meta","trending_post_label":"Trending","sponsored_post_label":"Sponsored by","disable_ad":"0","subtitle":"Copenhagen Malm\u00f6 Port has announced that Barbara Scheel Agersnap is stepping down as CEO after more than eight years in the role."},"jnews_primary_category":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[80,79,81],"class_list":["post-595","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-barbara-scheel-agersnap","tag-copenhagen-malmo-port-cmp","tag-oresund-region"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.denmarknews.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.denmarknews.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.denmarknews.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.denmarknews.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.denmarknews.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=595"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.denmarknews.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":598,"href":"https:\/\/www.denmarknews.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595\/revisions\/598"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.denmarknews.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/596"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.denmarknews.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=595"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.denmarknews.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=595"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.denmarknews.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=595"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
