In a packed tent, with double rows of listeners outside, a high-profile line-up discussed Dalarna as Sweden's next growth region. Thank you to all the participants, thank you to everyone who listened - on site and digitally. We are now ready for our continued joint growth journey.
If you missed the seminar, you can watch it afterwards here.
Time to start talking about Dalarna - Sweden's next growth region
Dalarna was Sweden's industrial backbone in the early days but lost importance as society faced greater challenges. Now the trend is reversing, 40,000 new jobs are being created and companies are fighting for labor and skills. How will Dalarna deal with the challenges of growth?
Almedalen Week 2023 took place from June 27 to July 1. It brings together decision-makers and interest groups from all over the country to discuss politics and important social issues. We took the opportunity to direct visitors' attention to Dalarna through our live hybrid seminar Dalarna Talks.
As usual, the program was led by Dalarna Science Park's CEO, Angelica Ekholm.
