Helge Trettoe Olsen has extensive experience in entrepreneurship, business development, and C-suite roles. He has successfully exited two companies that he either founded or co-founded. His first exit was with ETRIP AS (2007–2014), a company he founded in 2007, where he held a 70% majority stake at the time it was acquired by private equity-owned ABAX AS in 2014. Three years later, in 2017, he sold his self-developed patented invention, Shield—a sensor that detects scratches and dents on vehicles.

Before his entrepreneurial ventures, Mr. Olsen served as the regional manager of Konica Minolta Business Solutions Norway AS (1998–2004), overseeing operations in Stavanger, Hordaland, Haugesund, and Møre og Romsdal.
