Innovation is no longer just about progress – it’s about resilience
In a time of geopolitical uncertainty, climate urgency and rapid technological change, innovation has become essential to building strength – in companies, and across society. It’s not just about weathering the storm, but about adapting, recovering and evolving.
Tech Forward is hosting a roundtable discussion on why innovation is key to resilience – and what it will take to ensure Sweden remains a global tech leader. From startups to defense, we’ll explore how to better harness innovation, move faster from idea to market, and strengthen collaboration between sectors.
