This offer aims to increase strategic 6G competence in Sweden through individual mobility, while establishing collaboration between organizations in Sweden and the US. The rapid development of wireless connectivity means increasingly higher eligibility requirements for individuals and organizations to continuously renew their competence. Successful 6G development will depend on both specialized and general competence within 6G, as well as domain and organizational competence.
The initiative covers individual mobility in the area of 6G innovation and research.

Contribute to a sustainable system transformation
Eftersom Vinnova is tasked with promoting sustainable growth and system transformation, should your project also contribute to increased gender equality and climate change? We are based on the UN's global sustainability goals, defined in the 2030 Agenda. There we focus on two perspectives: gender equality and climate change.
