A Guide to the Stockholm Tech Scene

A Guide to the Stockholm Tech Scene

This guide is meant to help you navigate the Stockholm Tech/Startup Scene.

Stockholm’s tech scene is considered one of the leading in the world, and it’s growing quickly. Investments are at record levels with $1,4Bn invested in 2016, and $1,75Bn exit value in the same year. 

In the center of every startup community are the entrepreneurs. Without them there wouldn’t be a startup community to begin with. After the entrepreneurs, there’s a second layer of support from investors, government, universities etc. These form an ecosystem that can sometimes be hard to navigate.

To help you navigate I’ve listed the organisations and initiatives that support tech startups in one way or another — that can be found in Stockholm.


Venture Capital

Incubators / Accelerators

Corporate Investors

Education

Events

Coworkingspaces

Unicorns

Meetups

Media

Angel Networks

Government


By the way, a similar guide is available for Copenhagen , and I would encourage our friends at GBGTech, MalmoStartups and Helyes to create a similar overviews — since some of the leading startups are coming out of these cities as well.


I work with tech startups at Invest Stockholm, a part of City of Stockholm. If you like this content, you can follow me on Twitter for latest updates. You can also connect with me on LinkedIn.
