Leslie Alfredsson is an entrepreneur, innovation strategist, and game developer who is now set to take Press Start Game Hub to new heights. We are pleased to welcome Leslie as Head of Press Start, where she will continue to lead the gaming initiative that has, in a short time, established itself as a dynamic meeting place for students, researchers, and creators.
Karin Lekberg is paving the way for the Flemingsberg of the future — a place where knowledge and creativity meet. She envisions a vibrant area full of culture, evening and nightlife, and a natural meeting place for both students and creators. But when the goal feels far away, it’s about starting where you are — creating life and activity here and now, and above all, building on the stories that already exist, allowing the place to grow into its future.
Flemingsberg is a place where research and progress never sleep. A place where someone is always working on a solution. During Nordic Life Science Days in Gothenburg, Flemingsberg stood out from afar — with an orange booth that, just like Flemingsberg itself, was full of surprises, experiences, and served as an excellent meeting spot for life science enthusiasts.
Three days with the spotlight on Sweden’s innovation scene at Science Week x Sweden Innovation Parliament. Here, leading voices came together to explore solutions that build resilient societies, support sustainable industrial production, and secure the skills supply of the future. Flemingsberg Science Foundation was on site to talk about Stockholm’s competitiveness, how to attract new talent to Sweden, and what we as innovation nodes can do to strengthen Sweden’s innovation ecosystem as a whole.
A delegation of investors from some of South Korea’s leading game companies visited Press Start Game Hub in Flemingsberg yesterday, a growing hub for game innovation and entrepreneurship in Europe. The visit was part of an initiative organized by Business Sweden, aimed at strengthening ties between the Swedish and South Korean gaming industries.
With a background as a researcher at Karolinska Institutet and experience from academia, industry, and networking, Angela Hoyer, the new Networks and Event Manager at the Flemingsberg Science Foundation, is passionate about developing the life science sector. In her new role, Angela looks forward to creating meeting places where collaborations can grow, while also contributing to Flemingsberg’s continued development as a strong international hub for research and innovation.
In June this year, the foundation took part in the annual Almedalen Week, the world’s largest democratic meeting place for everyone who wants to join the discussions on current societal issues. This year, we had a special focus on Life Science, an area and cluster that has long been a natural part of Flemingsberg, and which is now growing stronger than ever.
In the south of Stockholm you’ll find Flemingsberg, home to a vibrant life science cluster that’s rapidly emerging as an attractive location for life science companies. Here, academia, business and society form a dynamic ecosystem, fueling innovation and growth. And with more companies establishing and collaborations further deepening, the opportunity to expand and invest have never been greater. This year, we are therefore participating in NLSDays in Gothenburg, where we will showcase Flemingsberg's unique strengths and invite more stakeholders to become part of our thriving life science environment.
The Park and the real estate company Hemsö have entered into a collaboration which means Novum Research Park in Flemingsberg will offer a first-class coworking environment for researchers, innovators, and creative minds who want to become part of a growing Life Science cluster. At the same time, the Flemingsberg Science Foundation is launching a film about Novum—playful and with a touch of drama.
Maybe you’ve been carrying an idea for a long time—a spark you believe could create something new, clever, and beneficial for society. Now it’s time to give your dream a chance to become reality.
