Summer Greetings from Johnny Högberg

What’s happening in Flemingsberg? Launching a value proposition for Flemingsberg together with other stakeholders and starting to use a shared narrative is probably the single most important achievement for us at the foundation this spring.

But much else has happened as well.

During the past six months, we launched ATMP (Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products) Flemingsberg. It serves as a platform for developing and communicating the unique opportunities Flemingsberg offers to become a hub for more and growing companies in cell and gene therapies.

In 2025, Alfa Laval will relocate 700 employees to Flemingsberg, and this spring, we at the foundation, together with Innovation Station and Alfa Laval, began testing various development ideas. We have also discussed the impact Campus Flemingsberg will have on Alfa Laval and the effects such a substantial establishment will have on Flemingsberg.

The foundation is also in a phase where we have created opportunities for partners to join. With Fabege, Hemsö, and Huge Bostäder AB as associated partners, we are both strengthening our financial base and attracting valuable expertise, enabling us to move faster towards our goals.

We continue our work with strategic partners to contribute to the development of ATMP Flemingsberg, an area where we see significant interest from companies wanting to participate. If you wish to join us on this journey, please get in touch!

Finally, I want to remind you that we at the foundation will be in Almedalen, where we are hosting a roundtable discussion with Huddinge municipality for specially invited guests. There, we will delve into Flemingsberg’s importance for southern Stockholm as a global leader in life sciences. This discussion directly follows Hemsö’s seminar on how we can become world champions in health, open to everyone. You wouldn’t want to miss it!

We are soon taking a well-deserved break to recharge for the fall. Have a wonderful summer!

In Flemingsberg, we make everything possible!

Johnny Högberg
CEO, Flemingsberg Science Foundation

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. The path has been both challenging and inspiring, shaped by a vibrant gaming community, new collaborations, and the courage to trade stability for freedom.

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.
