Science & Technology Office

The primary mission of the Science and Technology Office is to facilitate cooperation in research and development and other exchange of knowledge between Sweden and Japan.

This is done by informing decision-makers in Sweden about developments in Japan, and by organizing study visits, workshops and other events. The office maintains extensive contact networks in Sweden and Japan, particularly with key persons and organizations involved in research and innovation in government, academia, and industry.

Most of the activities of the Science and Technology Office are carried out within the framework of “programs” operated in close partnership with, and financed by, Swedish government agencies and other organizations with responsibilities in the particular area covered by a program.

Current programs cover the following areas:

  • Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)
  • Life Sciences and Bio-industry
  • Sustainable Development
  • Overall Development of Japanese S&T Policy and Innovation System
