Star expands Danish design team, bringing sustainable design offerings to clients worldwide

In a strategic move set to expand its sustainability credentials, Star, the global strategy, design and engineering consulting firm, has announced a major expansion of its Danish design studio. Founded by Danish serial entrepreneur Juha Christensen, Star has welcomed a creative team from the Copenhagen office of EGGS, a move that underscores Star’s commitment to innovative solutions and environmental conservation.

At the heart of this strategic expansion is Star’s dedication to integrating sustainable business practices into client projects. This move not only marks a pivotal moment in the company’s journey, but also signifies a strategic move towards a more eco-conscious future. The infusion of the award-winning EGGS creative team of six brings a wealth of experience in shaping core brand and product experiences, prioritizing sustainability at every step.

The new team is led by the visionary Katja Egmose, previously Denmark Country Manager Vice at EGGS, and now Head of Design in Star, alongside her roles as Chair on the Board of Design Denmark and on the Advisory board for SMEs with Energy Cluster. Her international team of design experts has a proven track record across diverse industries, from health care to energy. Its impressive client portfolio includes industrial giant Alfa Laval, energy leader Ørsted, insulation market leader Rockwool Foundation, and pharmaceutical multinational Takeda. With this newfound synergy, Star is set to redefine its approach to sustainable business solutions.

Juha Christensen, Founder and Chairman of Star, expressed his enthusiasm about this transformative expansion, stating, “At Star, we believe in the power of endgame driven partnerships and innovation to drive positive change. This acquisition not only enhances our creative capabilities but also strengthens our commitment to environmentally responsible practices, an area that is near and dear to my heart.”

Head of Design at Star, Katja Egmose, echoed Christensen’s sentiment, emphasizing the team’s dedication to positive change and innovation. “Our focus will be on creating positive change for people and the planet, delivering innovative products and services across various sectors, particularly in the circular economy and businesses dedicated to environmental and sustainable goals,” she affirmed.

But this expansion is just the beginning. Star is gearing up to bolster its sustainability credentials, starting with the Nordics region.

Juha Christensen emphasized the company’s mission, stating, “Our aim at Star is to create a positive impact that benefits the environment and the communities in which we operate. By supporting local initiatives, promoting green technologies and encouraging ethical practices, we can create a positive social impact. This, in turn, strengthens our reputation, fosters goodwill, and inspires our clients and partners to do the same.”

With its sights set on catalyzing positive change in the business world while contributing to a more sustainable future, Star is committed to delivering comprehensive, environmentally friendly strategies that drive success for its clients and create a lasting positive impact on the world.
