Strengthening European competitiveness to ensure prosperity and growth for future generations is closely linked to our ability to maintain a democratic society, to stand strong in times of geopolitical turmoil and to deliver on the promises on which the European collaboration is based. In an era of accelerating global competition, technological leaps and the need for transition, the EU’s ability to achieve these objectives is being challenged.
Ladda ner rapportenSweden and the Swedish technology industry have a key role to play in shaping future EU policy. As challenges to Europe’s competitiveness are now being met with a series of new initiatives, legislative proposals and strategic investments, it is crucial that Swedish industry engages more in European issues and influences the political direction.
Sweden’s prosperity has been built through long-term investments in research, innovation, trade and collaboration. Swedish industry is today globally competitive, technologically leading and at the forefront of the green transition, with high ambitions and a strong presence on the world market. This puts Sweden in a unique position to contribute with tangible experiences, solutions and perspectives in the EU’s work to strengthen its competitiveness and ensure sustainable growth.
Against this background, Teknikföretagen (Technology Industries of Sweden) has developed this EU agenda, with input from the Swedish technology industry on what is needed to strengthen Europe’s economic resilience, innovation ability and green leadership. The agenda highlights our main initial values in relation to the competitiveness initiatives that are being developed and is linked to the European Commission’s work programme for the coming mandate period.
