What happens in 2015 for your business?

– We will continue to put customers’ needs first and strive to simplify our application processes so that there is less bureaucracy and simpler for companies and other organizations to seek support from Vinnova research and innovation.

What affects your area the most, in the long term?

– It has most impact in the long term developments abroad. Many countries are investing heavily in research and innovation, not least in emerging countries, Sweden faces new competition in several areas. As an innovation agency, we need to relate to it, and ensure that we focus on the right things.

What do you most of all for 2015?

– I wish there are more broadly on innovation policy, where the particular research – education and business policies are coordinated more. If Sweden is to maintain and advance its position in the global economy requires different parts of the policy in the same direction.
