Key Competitive Attractions
The area around the Twin Cities of Sweden, Linkoping and Norrkoping, is a dynamic region with a strong focus on Research & Development. Located in a central Sweden location not far from Stockholm, the East Sweden region offers attractive ‘soft landing’ programmes for foreign investors at its two science parks, Mjardevi Science Park in Linkoping and Norrkoping Science Park. The science parks are home to over 300 R&D-intensive companies.
The area’s population is around 420,000, including 25,000 students and 350 professors at Linkoping University. Half of all Swedes live within a 200 km radius, and there is direct access to the Baltic Sea market and its 100 million consumers. Investors receive extensive support from regional bodies in order to facilitate a fast establishment process.
