Change is accelerating in the global manufacturing sector as more and more companies implement smart technologies, automation and flexible processes. The trend towards digitalisation also affects companies' localisation decisions, with Sweden emerging as a highly competitive and knowledge-intensive country for manufacturers that want to reach the European market. 

In this pod-TV episode, we meet Klas Ericson, Program Manager at Business Sweden, who shares his insights into the three primary drivers for change – sustainability, digitalisation and regionalisation. "If you don’t implement new technologies and working methods today, you will eventually be outrun," he explains. 

Join Klas in a discussion about Sweden's key areas of strength and its role as a pioneer in the global shift towards green, connected and near-market manufacturing.
