About
Who we are
We are the leading platform connecting Swedish and Romanian businesses, institutions, and decision-makers. Built on strong governance, strategic partnerships, and a clear focus on outcomes.
Mission
Connecting businesses and institutions across Sweden and Romania
Delivering networking, market access, and advocacy that create real value for members and partners:
- Facilitating networking that converts into partnerships, deals, and investment leads
- Creating opportunities through market access support, delegations, and sector pipelines where Swedish expertise meets Romanian strategic investment
- Advocating for a predictable, pro-growth business climate through structured, evidence-based dialogue and concrete barrier removal
- Aligning business initiatives with economic diplomacy goals in close cooperation with the Romanian Embassy, Swedish business associations, and public institutions
Vision
A trusted, impactful platform
Strengthening Sweden and Romania economic ties—accelerating trade, investment, innovation, and sustainable growth for companies in both countries.
Guiding principles
We believe strong business relationships start with strong principles. Our approach guides how we work with companies and institutions across Sweden and Romania, and defines what you can expect from us at every step.
Integrity
You can expect trusted governance, ethical standards, and fair, transparent engagement.
Sustainability
We prioritize initiatives that drive the green transition and circular economy forward.
Collaboration
We act as a two-way bridge—connecting businesses, embassies, and institutions to turn relationships into outcomes.
Impact
Everything we do is measured against one standard: tangible value for members.
Strategic objectives · 3–5 years
Six priorities guiding our work over the next 3–5 years—from network building to institutional-grade governance.
01Build the leading Sweden–Romania business network in Sweden
We aim to establish a strong, recognizable presence as the primary platform for Sweden–Romania business relationships in Sweden. Through a reliable event cadence—CEO roundtables, investor breakfasts, regional sub-groups, and industry/sector communities—we build the structures that turn connections into lasting relationships. Membership growth and retention are driven by tangible member services and curated introductions that deliver consistent value.
02Deliver trade and investment outcomes (two-way)
We operate an opportunity pipeline that connects members for deals, buyer/supplier introductions, and investor matchmaking. Alongside this, we offer a soft-landing program for Romanian companies entering Sweden and, later on, for Swedish companies entering Romania—covering key partners, compliance basics, hiring, and market entry playbooks.
03Focus on priority collaboration pillars
Our work concentrates on sectors where Swedish expertise and Romanian strategic investment intersect: green transition and energy modernization (clean energy, grids, storage, industrial decarbonization, sustainable cities); digital transformation and critical technologies (IT services, AI adoption, cybersecurity, smart industry); and innovation partnerships through pilots, incubators, testbeds, and research–industry collaborations.
04Advocate for a predictable and pro-growth business climate
We convene structured dialogues with Swedish institutions and business associations, coordinated with the Romanian Embassy, to address barriers and promote conditions that support cross-border business confidence. Our work is anchored by an annual Sweden–Romania Business Climate Brief that identifies barriers, proposes solutions, and delivers concrete recommendations.
05Improve visibility and reputation of Sweden–Romania business
We act as a credible, solutions-oriented voice for the Sweden–Romania business relationship, coordinated with the Romanian Embassy. Through joint communications, success-story campaigns, case studies, investment spotlights, and innovation features, we build a trusted presence that supports deal confidence.
06Ensure institutional-grade governance and financial sustainability
We operate with transparent statutes, a clear ethics and conflict-of-interest policy, and well-defined membership tiers. Revenue is diversified across membership, sponsorship, and paid delegations and training programs. Reporting covers leads generated, partnerships signed, member satisfaction, and policy issues resolved.
Governance

Every initiative is grounded in clear rules, transparent reporting, and institutional cooperation.
- Member-led, non-political, business-first, excluding military themes
- Transparent statutes, ethics and sponsorship policy, conflict-of-interest rules
