Business Sweden

Business Sweden facilitates for Swedish companies to grow internationally and for foreign actors to invest in Sweden.

With offices in 57 countries and in every region in Sweden, we strengthen our country as an attractive, innovative and competitive business partner. An important part is to support Swedish small and medium-sized companies in reaching export markets with their products and services so that they can grow internationally. The support consists of advisory services, skills development for companies, events, and targeted campaigns. Business Sweden’s mission is also to facilitate for foreign actors to invest in Sweden. Our innovation-friendly climate offers excellent investment opportunities in manufacturing, transport, science, technology, healthcare, music, design, tourism and other industries.

Business Sweden is a merger of the Swedish Trade Council and Invest Sweden, founded on January 1, 2013. We are jointly owned by the Swedish government and the industry, represented by the Ministry for Foreign Affairs and the Swedish Foreign Trade Association. The shared ownership provides access to contacts and networks at all levels.
