The City of Lund and Lund University have approved a joint strategy to foster the local innovation environment and business community. This means that efforts to attract companies and talent and to bolster Lund’s international position are now being stepped up.
“It sends out a strong signal that we speak with one voice. Sweden ranks high in terms of patents from academia. Lund University is third in Europe and tops the list in Sweden. To succeed in further strengthening the innovation climate and provision of future expertise, a holistic approach highlighting Lund’s strong points is required. We will continue this work and draw the world to Lund,” says Vice-Chancellor Erik Renström.
