I CFO KJETIL M. EBBESBERG I
CFO Kjetil M. Ebbesberg I am 49 years old, married to Mette and we have two children: our son Nikolas (22) and our daughter Helena (18). Nikolas studies Computer science at the University of Oslo and Helena is a second year student at a high school in Oslo.
We also have a dog, a Great Dane named Athena (8). She is the joy of the entire family. For a GD she is rather small, however still weighs 65 kg. We were not supposed to get a dog, despite heavy lobbying from the kids for years. Then one beautiful summer day at the parade street of Oslo my wife spotted this beautiful Great Dane, she fell in love (again…) and suddenly, the vote for a family dog turned three against 1… As to personal interests I have always been very interested in music and beyond listening at home I often go to rock concerts with friends or with family members. I try to stay reasonably fit and my preference is playing football and bicycling, which I regularly do with friends. Or else I run or go skiing during the winter (mostly cross country, but also downhill).

I also enjoy doing building work on my house – inside and outside. I find that really relaxing as I then get to use my brain for different tasks than I usually do. Now, however, I am moving into an apartment in the center of Oslo and I guess I will have less opportunities for those kinds of activities. My most favorable time-off activity, though, is to spend time with my family. I have realized that kids grow up fast. Our youngest is soon moving out, following her brother during next year. I am therefore glad that we have prioritized spending time together the last 20+ years. After finishing high school, I moved out at the age of 18 to join the military academy where I spent two years. I chose to do that mainly because I wanted to make something extra out
