THE TOPIC

Sweden, with its strong business climate, diverse language skills and commitment to innovation, is one of the highest-performing economies globally.

The Swedish government supports innovation and growth through various agencies and investments in infrastructure.

Sweden ranked in 2023 third in Europe for investments in deep tech and second in impact investments.

Excellent business opportunities exist in such sectors as Tech, construction and infrastructure, Life Science, food and FMCG as well as cleantech.

Sweden is also a perfect gateway to other Scandinavian markets.

How should foreign companies with an interest to enter Sweden and Scandinavia act to succeed?
