Flemingsberg Science Foundation welcomes Uroš Mićić as the new Community Manager

In December last year, the Flemingsberg Science Foundation was granted funding from the European Regional Development Fund to establish itself as a key player in Life Science with the launch of the “Cluster Engine Life Science Flemingsberg” project. Meet Uroš Mićić, the foundation’s new Community Manager, who will work on developing the Life Science cluster in Flemingsberg.

Uroš, tell us a bit about yourself

— I have two bachelor’s degrees, one from Uppsala University in sustainability and energy transition, and another from Hyper Island’s AI Business Consulting program. But my greatest passion lies in bringing people together through events and workshops. During my studies at Hyper Island, I started my podcast “Network like a pro,” and over three years, I’ve recorded almost 50 episodes with various CEOs, entrepreneurs, founders, and professionals.

— Previously, I combined my passion for networking and workshops by organizing panels on professional development. That’s when I realized I could create my own talk shows by bringing in a camera and an audience — something that was very well received.

What are you most looking forward to in your new role?

— I’m excited to get to know Flemingsberg’s ecosystem and use my networking skills to build bridges between departments, companies, and academics.

What are your thoughts on Flemingsberg, both now and in the future?

— It’s fascinating to learn about Flemingsberg’s history and how it has evolved into the science and innovation hub it is today. It’s also interesting to reach individuals who may be stuck in their work routines, helping them step out of their comfort zones and discover the ecosystem around them. That’s where I come in — not only to create touchpoints but also to facilitate enjoyable and memorable experiences, making our events the highlights of people’s everyday lives.

In Flemingsberg, we cure diseases that were previously considered incurable

Earlier this year we hosted the most meaningful ATMP event of the spring, in collaboration with Miltenyi Biotec and the Karolinska ATMP Center, Karolinska University Hospital and Karolinska Institutet. We gathered over 120 participants, all sharing a vision of creating momentum to accelerate access to ATMPs in the Nordics.

Flemingsberg in Transformation: ShiftSweden enables the transition to attractive and accessible living environments for all

Impact innovation is Sweden's innovation initiative for the 2030s. This week, the first five programs that have been granted funding for the next 10 years were presented, and we are pleased that "Shift2Access" is one of these programs. In 2023, the Flemingsberg Science Foundation initiated discussions with IQ Samhällsbyggnad, which works to make Sweden a leader in sustainable urban development. As a result, in the fall we signed a letter of intent to be included in the "Shift2Access" application, which has now been granted funding.
