French-Swedish Innovation Forum 2024

Empowering partnerships in finance and technology

This high-level forum is being organized following the signing of the new edition of the Strategic Innovation Partnership between Sweden and France during the French state visit to Sweden at the beginning of the year, for purpose of contributing to the development of a sustainable, digital and resilient European competitiveness. Opportunities and challenges in the new areas of the Innovation Partnership, such as security and defense, digitalization, nuclear energy, mobility and the green transition will be highlighted. European and national regulations, technological developments, innovation financing as well as skills and talent needs will be an integral part of the program.

Within this context the aim is to promote and develop French-Swedish business relations, investments, R&D and impact collaborations. We want to facilitate knowledge-sharing and exchange best-practices in green transition. We want to create meetings across our two countries to further build bridges between impact startups, companies, capital markets, and decision-makers. We want to strengthen the links between the French and Swedish innovation ecosystems and discuss the challenges and opportunities of Europe as an innovative continent of excellency for sustainable, digital and resilient societies.

This occasion offers an exceptional opportunity for networking to strengthen relations and develop and identify new French-Swedish partnerships in innovative technologies for the sustainable transition, create new businesses and further trade relations between France and Sweden in both directions.

This event is organized by the Swedish Chamber of Commerce in France in collaboration with Team France and Team Sweden.
