Flemingsberg is growing as a hub for creativity and innovation

In Flemingsberg, breadth is our edge. It is a place of creativity, with the Opera and Dramaten soon to move in, while we continue to be at the forefront of cell and gene therapy. To convey this, we have recently launched a value proposition for Flemingsberg together with key stakeholders to identify and package the soul, heart and DNA of Flemingsberg.

– The aim is to attract more business actors, restaurants and offers that in turn can attract more people to want to study, work and live in Flemingsberg. The goal is to be one of Sweden’s most important centers for education, research and creativity by 2050, says Pernilla Boström, COO at Flemingsberg Science Foundation.

Breadth and potential for development
To anchor the work and gather joint forces to take the next step, a launch meeting was organized with important discussions on how we can create a city where knowledge and creativity meet, and where Flemingsberg continues to be a place for world-class research.

– Flemingsberg, with its breadth and development potential, has a significant role to play in making Stockholm the most attractive city in Europe. The time when Flemingsberg was a place you just passed by is long gone, it is a place for development and establishment. That’s why a joint effort to tell the story of Flemingsberg is so important, says Camilla Broo, Municipal Director of Huddinge Municipality.

This work is done together with Huddinge and Botkyrka municipalities’ business units, Fabege, Hemsö and Södertörn University, with the help of the communications agency Gullers Grupp.

What happens next?

– We are continuing to work on the value proposition and how we can meet the needs of future start-ups and what we can offer to help them grow their business here. At present, we meet once a week in our own premises, but in time we want to set up a new, physical establishment office. We also hope that more people will see the value and want to be part of Flemingsberg’s establishment office, concludes Pernilla Boström.

Taking the leap as a solo developer in Sweden’s growing game industry

Jacques Diringer left a secure job at the game giant King to follow his dream of creating his own game from scratch. In a Stockholm where the gaming industry is growing rapidly and new companies are launched every year, he now embarks on a more uncertain but creative journey.

Steps shaping innovation and growth – Natasha Bank sums up the first year of Life Science Cluster Flemingsberg

A future life science cluster isn’t built in a year – but with a solid foundation and the courage to act, important steps can be taken along the way. In February 2025, we launched Life Science Cluster Flemingsberg: a multifaceted project with powerful, interconnected ambitions – to enable Flemingsberg’s life science cluster to reach its full potential by collaboration and creating the right conditions for the establishment and growth of those who drive innovation – small and medium-sized enterprises – and, in doing so, contribute to the Stockholm region’s leading position within the sector.

Johnny Högberg Summarizes 2025 – A Year of Growth and Collaboration in Flemingsberg

We are most effective and make the greatest impact when we engage our founders and leverage their size, organizations, and influence, and we still strongly believe in this. At the same time, the fact that we have grown as an organization has also made a difference. Today, we are exactly the kind of “two-pizza team” that Amazon founder Jeff Bezos highlights as the most effective. Among other things, we are now running two cluster initiatives and creating a level of engagement, buzz, and content that is noticeable in Flemingsberg and is actually helping to change the area.
