These are two reflections from Facts about business enterprise in Stockholm in 212. Stockholm is no longer merely Sweden s financial engine; our region has been developed to be the economic center of Scandinavia. Together with 49 municipalities around the Mälaren Valley, we are marketing ourselves as Stockholm The Capital of Scandinavia. Today, the battle for where companies that will be creating the jobs of tomorrow will establish themselves is being fought on a global scale, and we must work together in order to succeed. Furthermore, our role as the driver for growth requires us to look at the issue from a slightly broader perspective. Stockholm will become the leading sustainable growth region in Europe. With such a perspective, it will be very important with a positive development not only in Sweden but also in our neighboring countries. It will be beneficial for Stockholm if things go well in many other places in our part of Europe. At the same time, more than often business issues concern the state of the local environment. One concrete example concerns effective snow clearance making it possible for the transport system to cope with deliveries and enabling people to travel to and from home and work. The inhabitants of the Metropolitan Region are accustomed to piecing things together to balance everyday life. Thus, among other things, our attractiveness can be measured in how the transportation system is able to handle its undertaking. Another example is the opportunity for companies to find the right skills for their operations. There are facts in this publication regarding these and other issues. We hope that knowledge of Stockholm as a place of business will expand and that together we will be able to develop entrepreneurship in our region by prioritizing investments in areas that provide a foundation for more and growing businesses. Happy reading! In this publication, the Stockholm Region is defined as the countys; Stockholm county, Uppsala county, Gävleborg county, Västmanland county, Örebro county and Södermanland county.
