Stockholm is Europe’s third-biggest hub (after London and Paris) for global headquarters and home to 22 global multinational corporations. 

As a city, Stockholm prides itself on its openness, innovation, creativity, and a willingness to be early adopters and lead change. That’s why we have set ourselves the goal of becoming a global impact capital. And thanks to an impact-first mindset innate to the city’s startup ecosystem, we are confident that we’re well-positioned to reach that goal. 

Invest Stockholm is the investment promotion agency (IPA) for the Stockholm Region in cooperation with just over 50 municipalities in 8 counties. The mission is clearly set to attract foreign companies and investments to the region as well as to support already established companies to expand. 

We would like to invite you to a digital seminar with a focus on how we can help you capitalize on the investment, establishment and expansion opportunities the Stockholm region has to offer. Sign up to find out more about opportunities in the region and the extensive professional support we offer!
