Prince Daniel returns to where it all began - his old school in Ockelbo.
On Tuesday, 16th February Daniel returns home to Ockelbo to the inauguration of Perslundaskolan school. Last school year 2014-2015, the school has been closed for an extensive renovation of over 100 million and now just in time for the spring semester students move back in.
- Yes, we sent for a good while ago an official request and invitation for Prince Daniel, says Magnus Jonsson, municipal commissioner of Ockelbo.
Daniel will come without his family. Victoria and Estelle stay home at Haga Palace.
- We are very pleased and grateful that Daniel comes home and inaugurates our new school, continues Jonsson.
It may well be that Daniel's parents Ewa and Olle Westling attend at the inauguration, and most of the retired teachers who remain in the municipality will probably show up at the opening ceremony, says Jonsson.
When Daniel had started dating Victoria, he gave the first long interview to Perslundaskolan's school newspaper. He talked about his interest in sports:
- One lived almost at the rink when one was smaller. There is a nostalgic feeling when one, as an adult, returns to his childhood hockey arena, said Daniel.
When Daniel and Victoria made their first official trip to Ockelbo, they visited Perslundaskolan.
- It feels absolutely wonderful, Daniel answered then on how it was to be back in his old school.
Daniel told to the school newspaper of feelings about coming home:
- To come home to Ockelbo is like recharging the batteries. I think there is a special Ockelbo spirit that is based on being genuine and caring about each other. To set up for each other. It is self-evident.

The School of Computer Science and communication at the Royal Institute of Technology tells on their website about Daniel's visit there on Wednesday.
The visit took place in the robotics lab where the prince was given a presentation by Danica Kragic, Mårten Björkman and Patric Jensfelt.
Some of the topics that were discussed during the visit were – what is happening within this field at KTH and in the rest of the world? What are the future trends and the possibilities for product development? How to cope with the ethical dilemmas that arise when robots become more and more autonomous? The prince was an eager listener and took some notes.

Daniel had today two meetings at the Royal Palace.

First he met professor Mai-Lis Hellénius from the Unit of Medicine at Karolinska Institutet.
Professor Hellénius is doing a scientific assessment of the work of the En Frisk Generation Foundation. Daniel is the co-founder and patron of En Frisk Generation. The Foundation was founded on the idea of that good eating habits and physical activity are essential for good health. Professor Hellénius and her assistant evaluate if the participants of the activity of En Frisk Generation feel better and become more active after participating at the activity En Frisk Generation organizes. The evaluation started last autumn and lasts four years. Professor Hellénius and Daniel both speak at the film made of the work of En Frisk Generation. Professor Hellénius is also a member of the Expert Council of the Crown Princess Couple’s Foundation.

Later today Daniel met Eric Wahlforss, founder and chief technical officer at SoundCloud, and Sofie Quidenus, CEO & Founder at Qidenus Technologies.

Daniel attended this afternoon at the presentation of the Nordic Medical Prize 2015 at Folksam in Stockholm. So far no photos. I hope to see at least one from the event.
 
The court about Daniel at the delivery of the Nordic Medical Prizes:
The chairman of the Nordic Medical Prize Björn Rydevik welcomed everyone and Prince Daniel delivered the Nordic Medical Prizes to:
Professor Lars Engebretsen from the University of Oslo and professor Roald Bahr from the Norwegian School of Sport Sciences, professor Jon Karlsson from the University of Gothenburg and professor Michael Kajær from the University of Copenhagen.
The justification for the 2015 year's recipients were "for their internationally leading research which has created scientifically based knowledge about the importance of physical activity for health, and science-based measures regarding the prevention and treatment of sports injuries."
Each prize winner held a lecture after the prize ceremony.

Mitt i Järfälla newspaper reminds that Victoria was just week ago in Järfälla and now Daniel. The reporter got a short interview with Daniel.
Daniel is impressed by the Järfälla youngsters.
- The students had a great ambition and desire. It was great to come here, he says.
He says that he and the Royal Academy of Engineering Sciences try to spread a message about entrepreneurship, and teach young people that it is okay to fail.
- The first time you do something it rarely gets good. We need more people who dare to invest in entrepreneurship in Sweden.
Do you miss entrepreneurship after you became a prince?
- What I'm doing now is so challenging and fun, and it is also entrepreneurship in a way.
What are your best tips for young people with dreams?
- Find people who complement you. Start a Junior Achievement business, it's a huge opportunity. And I think it's good to have a mentor who can help you along the way.

Alexandra Rosengren, Fatime Arifi and Jonathan Jonasson were three of the students who asked questions and showed their products during the day.
- You can learn a lot about coming into work, you are treated more like an adult, says Alexandra, who started a company selling muesli.
They tell they got many new ideas from the day to be able to continue with their businesses.
- Mainly to dare, to get the courage to fail, says Alexandra.
- Like, even if you fail does not mean that it's over, Jonathan fills in.

Daniel attended on Monday at a meeting of the steering group for Prince Daniel's Fellowship and its entrepreneurial programme.
The steering group consists of Marcus Wallenberg (chairman), Daniel (honorary chairman), Marshal of the Court Karolin A. Johansson, Carl Bennet, Johan Skarborg and Johan Weigelt (Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences).

On Tuesday the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences has one of it's annual gatherings. In the evening the Academy organizes a seminar "Vägar till ökat entreprenörskap" (Ways to increased entrepreneurship).
How do we best stimulate young people's interest in entrepreneurship? What is required for innovative companies to grow large? The questions are the starting point for the seminar to be held when Prince Daniel is welcomed as an honorary member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences.
Prince Daniel Fellowship and Entrepreneurial programme makes recognised visits to schools and universities to inspire entrepreneurship. A mentoring program targeted at young entrepreneurs is another part of the project. How has the response been so far? What are the future plans? Prince Daniel gives the answers.
The seminar is held in conjunction with the Academy Gathering and is started by the Chairman of the Academy, Leif Johansson.
There is a live broadcast from the seminar.

From the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences seminar "Vägar till ökat entreprenörskap" (Ways to increased entrepreneurship).

In the beginning Leif Johansson, the chairman of the Academy, asked Daniel to say some words about Prince Daniel's Fellowship and after that he gave Daniel the badge of honor of him being appointed as a honorary member. After Leif Johansson's speech Daniel was interviewed about Prince Daniel's Fellowship, what he had in mind when he got the initiative to the program.
Daniel spoke about the school visits, the Prince Daniel's Fellowship Mentor Program (there are some new ideas at the Program) and the Entrepreneurial Day.
Jan Westberg, the moderator from the Academy praised very much the Prince Daniel Entrepreneurial Day, it has been organized two times and succeeded very well, it is a great event. Westberg said that after the Day there is a dinner and Daniel is always the last to leave. Everybody laughed. Daniel said that he is the last to leave because he really wants to meet and talk with every entrepreneur and he can't leave before the entrepreneurs, his guests, leave.
Daniel was very good while being interviewed. He is a very good speaker, passionate on his Fellowship program and has a lot to say. He is also funny and gets easily people to listen to him. After the seminar there is a dinner. Jan Westberg said that people can make more questions to Daniel at the dinner.

In the end of the seminar Björn O. Nilsson, the ceo of the Academy, told how when planning the Prince Daniel Fellowship entrepreneurial programme they had many good meetings at the Adademy's premises and at the Royal Palace. And that Daniel had so much ideas in his computer, PowerPoints and others. Nilsson thinks that the ideas are enough to encourage entrepreneurship in Sweden for hundred years. Nilsson said also that Sweden has had and has a motor prince and also an entrepreneurship prince.

Hanna Nilsson, Managing Editor of Cosmopolitan Sweden about Daniel and the seminar at the Royal Academy of Engineering Sciences on Tuesday.

Prince Daniel: Keep away the Law of Jante and invest!
Prince Daniel encourages young people to dare to invest and be entrepreneurs. Cosmopolitan was invited when the Prince took part in the Royal Academy of Engineering Sciences seminar and we were impressed, to say the least ..!
We at Cosmo had the honor to personally meet the Prince. What the prince said, was very worth considering and something we should all take to heart:
- This collaboration with the Academy aims to that all young people shall be able to start businesses. Keep away the Law of Jante and bet! We must have the courage to have an impact on culture, because that is something that we don't directly have in Sweden. We are often anxious if we compare with other countries. We want to encourage to study further, but also dare to start a business, too few in Sweden take that step. We have gotten better at it, but we can do more than that!
The prince also took up some Swedish public figures who have become motivators:
- Today Zlatan Ibrahimovic is a great source of inspiration to many children and young people, and before that were Björn Borg and Ingemar Stenmark.
And of course the Prince is right. It is so important that today we have role models to look up to, and see that nothing is impossible if you just choose to believe in yourself, your dream or your ideas. And the prince surely had a good tip for anyone who wants to invest in anything in life:
- Stop focusing on the idea, just do!
We at Cosmo let this be the final word and hope that all of you are willing to invest, and perhaps Prince Daniel's words inspire you to this - something which at least he did with us! Hey, we surely have a motivating, competent and enthusiastic Prince! A lot of praise to the prince who dares to make us all believe in ourselves, and "just do". Cheer!
So ... who feels urged to go out and start a business today ?! We can do it!

Ms Nilsson seems to be very impressed with Daniel.
 
Daniel visits today Lärvux in Gävle, it is a education for adults with development disorder or brain damage. Daniel speaks about motion and health. It has been a theme at the school and one student got the idea to invite Daniel there.

Daniel inaugurated Perslundaskolan in Ockelbo. Daniel said that Estelle has it much more easier to concentrate than he has. Daniel told also that he never got detention at school. "Yes, it is amazing of course be back. I am particularly pleased to see how incredible the school has become after the renovation"

Daniel gave a moving speech, where he spoke about his time at that school. He said that "here one can learn that your own effort makes the difference and that hard work gives good results, like normally in life". Daniel said also that he remembers best how it was to be a part of a group of good friends. He didn't know it then but knows now that he got friends for his life.
There is also a long video of Daniel's visit and his speech

Daniel said to Svensk Damtidning that he had a lot of going on when he studied at Perslundaskolan. He was probably half good in everything, but he had difficulties to concentrate.

I bet it felt great to go back to his old school and be involved in such an event. Wonder if any of the staff from back in his day are still around. Chances are slim I know. Had to smile at the 'ants in the pants' comment, guess it crosses cultural barriers:D
 
Thanks, LadyFinn :)

Daniel out and about as always.

Methinks he looked a bit tired.
Wonder if Victoria keeps him awake at night?

You know how it works. In the middle of the night Daniel is woken by a gentle slab from his wife that almost sends him out of bed: Are you awake?
- I am now! :frazzled:
- You can't sleep either? The baby keeps me awake with all that kicking.
- Yeah, okay, and what can I do about it?!? So he puts his arms around her.
- Daniel, I've been thinking...
- Sigh!

And if he thinks that because the first child was easy, the second one will be quiet and calm as well. Wrong! The second child always come equipped with very well-developed lungs - and they use them!

So I predict we are going to see a lot of pictures over the next few months of Daniel having bags under his eyes that go down beyond the corners of his mouth.:coffee: :D

"Rural areas have a future, but success will partly depend on the ingenuity, ambition and what involvement are available locally. Everyone must contribute and help each other. It is important that you show that you want to invest in the school. It is a clear signal to all who live here and for those who are thinking about to move here: here we believe in the future, we are preparing this school and we invest in the young. It matters."
"I feel very proud to have got the honor to be here tonight. But I feel even prouder of being from here. It is here in Ockelbo my values have been established. I have lived in Ockelbo and Ockelbo will always live in me".

Soltorgsgymnasiet i Borlänge har haft... - Ung Företagsamhet Dalarna

Many wanted to take selfies with Prince Daniel when he visited today Soltorgsgymnasiet in Borlänge to talk about entrepreneurship and enterprise.
- I don't count, but there are many, said prince Daniel.
How does it feel?
- That can one take as a compliment. It's about to be out and mission that one should dare to invest, you should not be afraid to fail. It is that we should get away for a little social utopia and be more forward-leaning.
The prince is also am an example of successful entrepreneurship with a successful company within the health and training behind him.
- Entrepreneurship took me very far. I was able to realize my own ideas, I created a job for myself and for quite a few others by my passion for fitness and health.
Björn Renberg, headmaster of Soltorgsgymnasiet:
- We think it's great that they are here and that our students become aware of a lot of exciting things, which they also can do. This is a great push to our entrepreneurship course that we have here.
Selfies och entreprenörskap när prinsen besökte Soltorgsgymnasiet - P4 Dalarna _ Sveriges Radio

- We think you are a generation that has expectations for the future, unlike your parents who took a job and worked on the same thing for 40 years. You want to influence. Therefore, we believe that it is a great alternative to become an entrepreneur, said the prince.
Josefin Hagström is one of those students who thinks of becoming an entrepreneur. She participated at a round table discussion with the inspirators and Daniel.
- It was very educational. It was a lot about how to dare to take the step out. It is difficult to know what one wants. It is important to learn from others' experiences as well, said Hagström.
Daniel says at the video that the morning was very good, enthusiastic students with a lot of questions. He said also that the urge to entrepreneurship varies in different places in Sweden and that we are more and more dependent on individuals who dare to start things to create jobs.

Daniel takes today part at Swedish Ski Association's "Everyone on Snow" -activity, and does some cross country skiing with children at Gärdet. With "Everyone on Snow" the Swedish Ski Association together with the Swedish Ski Council gives a chance to the children on fourth grade in Stockholm to try winter sports. Daniel attended last year too, then he did some alpine skiing with children.
"It is gratifying and an honor for us that Prince Daniel continues to engage himself in Everyone on Snow. It shows that the Prince, like the Swedish Ski Association, has a genuine interest in children's sport, says Charlotta Bürger Backström, responsible for Everyone on Snow.

Daniel was interviewed at TV4 News morning. Daniel said that because he grew up in Ockelbo, it was very natural to learn to ski and ski at school and at home. It is important that the children get to know sport. One knows that if you get used to exercising and get self-confidence in your physical capacity as a child, it stays with you your whole life. A positive start is important. We know that health is unequal and at the areas where there is tough economically, there can be three times bigger risk to get diabetes and twice the risk to get a stroke. This Everyone on Snow is a great effort, I have already met children who have never been on snow and to get the feeling of the skis sliding can be very positive, Daniel said. Daniel said that he has never competed in cross country skiing. The reporter asked how is it with skiing in the family, does Estelle like skiing? Absolutely, she had a race at the preschool some days ago, says Daniel.

Daniel said to Svensk Damtidning's reporter that cross country skiing is a very fine training but he prefers alpine.
Who is the best in the family?
- My wife, Estelle and then me.
So Estelle is better than you?
- Yes, much, much better
How much she has skied?
- A few times per winter for the last two years.
How competitive person Estelle is?
- She is a competitive person a little, she is. I believe that she has inherited it from mum and dad.
At any time a new family member is expected, how does it feel?
- It feels very good. It will perhaps be a future skier, we will see!
Do we have a day?
- Yes, you are usually supposed to get it ...
Do we have to still wait for a long time?
- Yes, you must be patient!

Thanks, LadyFinn :)

Daniel out and about as always.

Methinks he looked a bit tired.
Wonder if Victoria keeps him awake at night?

You know how it works. In the middle of the night Daniel is woken by a gentle slab from his wife that almost sends him out of bed: Are you awake?
- I am now! :frazzled:
- You can't sleep either? The baby keeps me awake with all that kicking.
- Yeah, okay, and what can I do about it?!? So he puts his arms around her.
- Daniel, I've been thinking...
- Sigh!

And if he thinks that because the first child was easy, the second one will be quiet and calm as well. Wrong! The second child always come equipped with very well-developed lungs - and they use them!

So I predict we are going to see a lot of pictures over the next few months of Daniel having bags under his eyes that go down beyond the corners of his mouth.:coffee: :D

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
You seem to have a looooot of experience :D

To Sveriges Radio Daniel said:
- I think it is incredibly exciting to take part in this incredibly exciting venture, which Everyone on Snow means. I think it is very positive and important.
There was a lot going on and full speed at the tracks and prince Daniel had to hurry up to get along.
- Now I'll try to meet a few children to see if they have fun, and just talk and hang out, says Prince Daniel and hurries on.
