Flemingsberg is Not Just a Stop Along the Way, but a Destination on the Rise

Flemingsberg is an area in constant development and transformation. To highlight the exciting progress being made and the opportunities that lie ahead, the Flemingsberg Science Foundation invited members of the Flemingsberg Business Community to an inspiring summer breakfast with the theme “What’s Happening in Flemingsberg.”

During the breakfast, Pernilla Boström, COO of the foundation, spoke about the value proposition for Flemingsberg, the new establishment office, and provided an update on the current happenings in the area. The purpose of the breakfast was to bring together the Business Community, companies, the municipality, property owners, academia, and the region to give all stakeholders a chance to feel connected to the place and share in the ongoing development.

It feels as though, no matter what problem or societal challenge you can think of, there is someone in Flemingsberg working on a solution. Someone thinking innovatively, seeking new paths, new collaborations, new opportunities. Here, we make everything possible.

How Do You Build a Place Where More Organizations Want to Establish Themselves?

What is it that actually makes a company, research environment or organization choose to establish itself in a particular place? It is rarely just about premises or geography. Just as important are access to talent, networks, collaboration and a shared direction for the future. In Flemingsberg, a number of stakeholders are working together through Etableringskontor Flemingsberg to strengthen the area’s attractiveness and create the best possible conditions for future establishments. Pernilla Boström tells us more about the work, the goals and what we took away from a study visit to Lund and Malmö.
