Flemingsberg Science celebrates ten years – follow the journey to today

This year marks the 10 year anniversary of the start of the Flemingsberg Science Foundation. The decade has seen a number of initiatives that have contributed to the development of Flemingsberg as a regional city center in southern Stockholm.

A new publication summarizes the ten-year journey made by the Flemingsberg Science Foundation during the years 2011-2021. Here, the foundation’s three periods of activity are described under the headings: More new knowledge-intensive companies, Collaboration for a strong campus and A living and open university city.

All periods are reflected through interviews with a number of people who in various forms have been active in the work. Among them is Matti Sällberg, professor at KI:
– Flemingsbergs Science had a central role in the establishment of Campus Flemingsberg as a concept and that it is now seen as a physical environment, says Matti Sällberg, professor and biomedical analyst at the Department of Laboratory Medicine at Karolinska Institutet.

In the publication, you can also follow the last ten years’ physical development of Flemingsberg and also get a glimpse of the future regional city center.

The publication “Flemingsberg Science 2011-2021” was presented in connection with the appointment of a new CEO of the foundation.
