Digital campaign to showcase career opportunities in Piteå and Skellefteå

Piteå and Skellefteå's joint concept to attract professional talent and those looking to return to the respective cities, has been a popular and appreciated event with a total of about 2,000 participants at KTH and Skansen in Stockholm. In 2020, the event was held digitally, as in-person meetings weren't possible for this year's campaign. The campaign lasted for a month, starting on December 7, 2020. P.S. See you soon is an initiative to showcase Piteå and Skellefteå as attractive places to live, and to match employers with potential employees, during the ongoing pandemic. The campaign is geared towards those wishing to move here, and those who once moved away and are now starting to feel a bit more homesick than usual. The campaign website served as a portal, linking people to company website. There were also opportunities to book digital meetings with companies, with the aim of attracting skilled workers to our region. Wibax was one of the companies participating in the digital campaign and offering digital meetings for potential new employees.

SPONSORSHIP

Wibax seeks to make positive contributions to the community, and we hope that we may do so through our sponsorship efforts. We view sponsorship as a collaborative effort, something to benefit both parties and be characterised by good chemistry. We strive for gender equality and would also like to help children and youth regardless of their financial status or cultural background. In 2020, Wibax continues to sponsor the floorball team Wibax Piteå IBK, which also carries our name. We also collaborate with Piteå Elit, PIF Dam, Young Achievement Norrbotten, the Childhood Cancer Fund and Lions. In addition to these associations, a number of different sports teams for children and youth have been sponsored by Wibax.
