Creating
positive change

With cutting-edge expertise in 3D and AI, Shader, founded by Simon Hedlund and Filip Kantedal, has rapidly become a technology developer to watch. Through interactive visualizations for Norrköping Port and Region Västernorrland, the company has showcased how Swedish industry—and other sectors—can benefit from digital technologies and sustainable solutions.

In mid-October, 11 innovative companies from Sweden, Finland, Estonia, and Latvia traveled to Chicago as part of the EU-funded Bridging4Growth project. The delegation aimed to connect these companies with local stakeholders and practical strategies to break into the U.S. market. With us from Norrköping, we had our local companies Interspectral and Ligna Energy.

Last week, a delegation comprising several Austrian companies visited Norrköping for a packed program of networking opportunities, site visits, and workshops. The visit was part of a new collaboration between Advantage Austria Nordics, Norrköping Science Park (NOSP), and Linköping Science Park, aimed at strengthening partnerships and exchanges with companies from Östergötland and international companies, both within technology and innovation.
