The Ambassadors of the Linnaeus Apostles
- Global Science & Adventure project.

IK Foundation & Company has also established its own group of three ambassadors for the project. They include the Rt Hon Ingvar Carlsson, former Prime Minister of Sweden, Mr Olof G Tandberg, former foreign secretary for the Swedish Royal Academy of Sciences and Mr Lars Gårdö, Chairman of Nordic 3i. Together they represent the public sector, the scientific community and the business community and inspire various interests and sponsors. Their task is to help promote the Linnaeus Apostles - Global Science & Adventure.



The Linnaeus apostles can be numbered amongst the most remarkable and important people in our history
