Collaboration for a better future
Knowledge and solutions are never far away in Gothenburg. Why? Because we have a unique spirit of collaboration between business, academia and the public sector. We bring the right players together.
Collaboration in the Nordic capital of getting things done
Knowledge and solutions are never far away in Gothenburg. Our enabling business climate is characterized by openness, inquisitiveness and the courage to test. Our long tradition of working together to create change for the better is partnered by a genuine willingness to do this. Collaborations between the business community, academia and public bodies are driving the amazing developments we have seen over the past few years, and these will continue. This is a key ingredient for the Gothenburg region’s success as a global hotspot for innovation and a trailblazer in sustainable growth.
Ongoing collaboration projects are for example: Gothenburg Green City Zone, The Tranzero initiative and Platform for climate neutral construction. Many more have made the transition from collaborating project to innovative business and new ones are always underway.
Science parks and the innovation ecosystem
Our science parks are important components of the region’s innovation ecosystem. They offer cooperation-friendly environments perfect for initiating testbeds and collaborations and cover areas of urban development, life science, transport, ICT and media.
Testbeds - the key to collaboration
A testbed in Gothenburg is an excellent way for a company to establish contacts in the Nordic market. Swedes are also known for being early adopters, making us the perfect test market. Here you will find testbeds all over the city. Join us and test your products and services using virtual reality, laboratories, simulated environments, or even out in the real world. If you make it here, you can make it anywhere.
