Sweden’s Innovation Riksdag 2024 in Boden and Luleå, 13-15 May, will be the platform where actors from innovation, politics, business and society gather to discuss and shape the sustainable society of the future.

At the heart of this transition are the cities of Boden and Luleå, which play a central role in the global green transition. A transformation to be realised in 3-5 years, something that would normally take 20 years.

– Innovation and entrepreneurship are crucial success factors for us to be able to adapt to meet our global challenges. During Sweden’s Innovation Riksdag, we gather the core of national and regional forces from innovation environments, politics, business, academia and society. This year, where the world’s largest test bed for societal transition is located – Boden and Luleå. This makes SIR24 a unique platform where we will explore and immerse ourselves in the opportunities and challenges of the green societal transition and how collaboration is the way forward for us to succeed,” says Stina Lantz, CEO of SISP.
