Välkommen! Orgalim General Assembly 2020 Stockholm, Sweden Join the conversation at #EUindustry Page - 3 // //Innovation with a Purpose I am delighted to welcome you to Orgalim’s 2020 summer General Assembly (GA), hosted by our Swedish member Teknikföretagen. Returning to Stockholm, the GA will be a platform for engaging on the latest European policy discussions, exchanging views and insights, and connecting with peers from across the continent. Plus, it will provide participants with a unique window into Sweden’s innovation ecosystem. The 2020 summer GA takes place against a backdrop of continuing geopolitical instability, a new focus on the EU’s future industrial strategy, and a growing urgency to find new solutions to climate change. Bringing together our membership from across Europe with guests from policy and industry, the GA will shine a spotlight on the opportunities for EU industry to lead the global innovation race and address these challenges. Renowned for its innovative spirit, Stockholm is the perfect place to have these conversations. I am certain our stay will be inspiring thanks to the signature Swedish hospitality, and the excellent programme we have put together in collaboration with our host Teknikföretagen. Looking forward to seeing you in Stockholm! Malte Lohan, Director General, Orgalim – Europe’s Technology Industries Page - 4 // // Welcome Guide It is with both great honour and pride that Teknikföretagen and Sweden are hosting the Orgalim General Assembly in 2020. The General Assembly is one important step towards a Europe with a clear and vital industrial strategy – a strategy that views European industry as an integral force in the work of addressing the challenges we face as a society here in the EU. Technology makes the world a better place, and Teknikföretagen and the Swedish industry we represent are eager to play our part in shaping this positive future. We are looking forward to meeting our colleagues from all over Europe. While you are in Sweden we will present to you some exciting examples of industrial innovation – and of course, we will give you the opportunity to see some of the best sights our capital Stockholm has to offer. During your stay, I hope you can take time to explore the natural and cultural attractions of Stockholm and its beautiful surroundings and discover why we are so proud to call this city our home. Welcome to Sweden! Klas Wåhlberg, CEO, Teknikföretagen Page - 5 // //Innovation with a Purpose OUR HOST Teknikföretagen (The Association of Swedish Engineering Industries) is an employers’ organisation, and a force for innovation. We are present throughout Sweden and assist 4,100 engineering companies in labour law and industry issues, enabling them to focus on developing world-class goods and services. Engineering companies shape the future – and we help them to succeed. Sweden and Europe are facing an age of unprecedented possibilities. New technology and new business models enable us to tackle the greatest challenges of our time. The Swedish engineering sector leads this development. Sweden’s future is consequently closely interwoven with the future of the engineering sector. Partly because Sweden’s labour market and welfare system are dependent on the success of business, and partly as it is the solutions adopted by business which will also form Sweden’s solutions. Consequently, our focus should be on promoting innovation and development in business - for technology that makes the world a better place. Page - 6 // // Welcome Guide Page - 7 // //Innovation with a Purpose ABOUT THE ORGALIM GENERAL ASSEMBLY For over 60 years, Orgalim has invited the leading lights of Europe’s technology industries to come together twice a year for the association’s General Assembly. And over the decades this event has become a valued platform for engaging on the latest European policy discussions, exchanging views and insights, and connecting with peers from across the continent. The General Assembly also serves an important statutory function: it is here where binding decisions are made on Orgalim’s future priorities and actions for the year ahead. In winter the General Assembly meets in the EU capital of Brussels; in summer, the event is hosted by an Orgalim member association in their home country. The summer meet gives participants a unique opportunity to get to know more about the local industry in that country, network with senior company representatives from the region, and explore the sights and culture of the host city. Always a memorable event, this summer’s General Assembly in Stockholm – hosted by Swedish association Teknikföretagen – promises to be truly unforgettable: named the most innovative region in the EU, Stockholm will host a dynamic programme of events over three days from 25 to 27 May.

  • Middle-Class Immigration and Residential Preferences in Stockholm
    KTH Architecture and the Built Environment Stockholm)(Google)images,)2013)! ! Middle'class!Immigration!and! Residential!Preferences!in!Stockholm! Rosa Gumà Altés Degree Project SoM EX 2013-13 Master (Two Years), Spatial Planning Stockholm 2013 KTH, Royal Institute of Technology Department of Urban Planning and Environment Division of Urban and Regional Studies Abstract This thesis reviews theories about migration, relocation and residential choice focusing on middle- class migrants as the target group within the Swedish context. I argue that middle-class migrants represent an increasing group of migrants within the European Union since the economic crisis of 2008. This time period has seen increased migrant fluxes mainly from Southern to Northern European states. The middle-class migrants have particularities that distinguish them from traditional mass migration. This study aims to learn more about their reasons to move to another country (in this study, Sweden) and their process of settlement (and integration) within the urban context in Stockholm) assessing which factors affect their residential choices. On the basis of qualitative methods, I assess the results of the research interviews of a convenient sample of 9 middle-class newcomers to Stockholm, with previous literature. Results of this study suggest that individual residential choices are related to socio-demographic variables, lifestyle, taste and previous personal experiences. Nevertheless, residential choices and the process of settlement and territorial integration are also limited due to the nature of the housing market, the institutional context, tenure choice, sources of information and economic constraints. In short, the middle-class immigrants represent a small group, which is heterogeneous in terms of culture, race, profession, level of education, country of origin, languages, that shows preference for diversity and the inner city.
