Welcoming more culture and creative industries to a growing place

On August 29, the Royal Swedish Opera and the Swedish National Dramatic Theatre opened their new studios in Flemingsberg with a festive mix of song, poetry and inspiring conversations about collaboration. The opening marks an important milestone in Flemingsberg’s development and brings us one step closer to the vision of creating a place where knowledge and creativity meet in southern Stockholm.

The fact that the Royal Swedish Opera and Dramaten are establishing themselves here in Flemingsberg is a central part of the journey towards becoming a cultural and creative hub. During the opening ceremony, the Minister for Culture, Parisa Liljestrand, joined representatives from the Royal Swedish Opera, the Royal Dramatic Theatre, Fabege and Huddinge Municipality, symbolizing the broad collaboration behind Flemingsberg’s development.

“We are incredibly excited to finally welcome the staff and operations of the Royal Swedish Opera and Dramaten to Flemingsberg and bring the building to life. The development of the district is based on a mix of academia, business, and culture, which will strengthen the entire Stockholm region. We look forward to the continued work of the Opera and Dramaten in sparking interest both in Swedish performing arts and in the creative and artistic professions that contribute to their creation.” – Anna Nyberg, Head of Business Development, Fabege.

Visitors also had a unique opportunity to step “behind the scenes” and take part in the magical environments where the performing arts take shape. Here we got an insight into the artistic and craftsmanship process that lies behind the magnificent stage environments.

“The opening of Dramaten and Operans workshops puts Flemingsberg on the map as a place to be reckoned with when it comes to culture in the Stockholm region. Even though it is only now that the theaters have really moved in, we have already been collaborating for several years on art and cultural experiences in schools. Our common goal is to reduce the distance from Flemingsberg to the performing arts centers at Gustaf Adolfs torg and Nybroplan for our children and young people.” – Anja Dahlstedt, Director of Culture and Leisure at Huddinge Municipality.

This is a significant moment in Flemingsberg’s development, strengthening it as a dynamic meeting place for culture, creativity and innovation. Flemingsberg is not a place along the way, but a place on the way.

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.
