What do you think of when you think of Sweden? When you ask people who have never been here, they might be picturing our fields and forests and not our industrial facilities and manufacturing plants.
But in reality, Sweden has a booming manufacturing and industrial engineering sector that accounts for 20 percent of the country’s GDP and creates over 1 million jobs.
Whether it’s steel, automotive, chemical, forestry food processing, or other sectors, find out how Sweden is pioneering the possible when it comes to advanced manufacturing and innovation.
Our guests today are Cecilia Warrol, Program Director at Produktion2030 and Head of Industrial R&D at the Association of Swedish Engineering Industries and Björn Block, Global Business Area Manager at IKEA Home Smart.
The Smart Society Sweden Podcast is hosted by Elizabeth Walentin and is a project of the Karl-Adam Bonnier Foundation and Business Sweden.
