Impact Innovation is reshaping Sweden for the 2030s
Impact Innovation is Sweden's major innovation effort to tackle the challenges of our time and the future. On the way to a sustainable and competitive Sweden. Attractive to live in for everyone.
In collaborations between actors in the private, public and non-profit organizations, Impact Innovation meets real technology and societal needs with ground-breaking solutions. Together, we show what is possible, and lead internationally.
Impact Innovation is a mission-driven effort that, in the meeting between different perspectives, ideas, experiences and cutting-edge skills, finds the best solutions to increase the pace of that transition.
With initiatives for green industry, strengthened competitiveness, sustainable and prosperous societies, Impact Innovation's programme cover all important areas of society – production, consumption and value chains, community building and transportation, and good and equal health.

The process forward
Only the dates for the first assessment process, dates in 2022, are set. Other dates are preliminary.What is Impact innovation?
Impact innovation is a gathering of forces where actors from business, academia, the public sector and civil society come together to meet the social challenges of our time and the future. It is a continuation of the ongoing strategic innovation programs that started in 2013. The programme that are being formed that will start in full force in 2024.
For more powerful effects, a few major programme must be prioritized in areas that are strategically important for Sweden. The new programs must to a greater extent address areas of broad societal relevance to ensure greater systemic effects. They must clearly contribute to global competitiveness through transformation for sustainable development and have a clearly stated direction (that is, objective or so-called mission).
