French-Swedish Innovation Forum
It’s time to give our European start-ups the means to scale up and become global unicorns. We need to build stronger bridges and networks between France and Sweden. We want to strengthen the links between the French and the Swedish innovation ecosystems and discuss the challenges and opportunities of Europe as a scale-up continent.
The French-Swedish Innovation Forum is more than just a forum; it is a meeting place for European investors, French/Swedish entrepreneurs and corporates where they can exchange best practices in financing, innovation and growth in order to increase Swedish-French co-investments and cooperations in innovation.
Organized by the Swedish Chamber of Commerce in France
