We open the way for innovation that makes a difference

We do this by:

• bringing together companies, researchers, the public sector and civil society in common directions. Together they can create the development Sweden needs.
• stimulating collaboration across traditional boundaries. This is so that policy development will pave the way for innovation that makes a difference.
• providing the opportunity to experiment and test new ideas before they become profitable.
• strengthening international connectivity through partnerships and EU programme.

Vinnova works in eight areas where we take a concerted approach to stimulate innovation. We mobilize actors from different parts of society towards common objective, identify important needs and finance research and innovation that promotes sustainable and competitive development.
