Secretary Clinton congratulates ALCOA’s Janne Sigurdsson


I had the pleasure of presenting to Janne Sigurdsson, the manager of ALCOA’s Fjardaal plant, a letter from Secretary Clinton congratulating her for receiving the Stevie Award for Female Executive of the Year in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.  The letter applauded Janne’s exceptional efforts in building Fjardaal into one of the world’s state-of-the-art smelters and expressed her gratitude for Janne’s outstanding participation in the community of eastern Iceland, supporting local culture and contributing to improvements in education and the environment.
