About AI Sweden
Sweden’s national center for applied artificial intelligence with a mission to accelerate the use of AI to benefit our society, our competitiveness, and everyone living in Sweden.
Who we are
AI Sweden’s partner network boasts more than 150 partners from across all sectors. And the AI Sweden core team consists of over 80 people - everything from leading AI experts, data scientists, research engineers, linguists and mathematicians to policy experts, lawyers, journalists and change leaders.
How we work
We act as a catalyst for organizations and partners that have the ambition to generate sustainable value using AI. We work not-for-profit, collaborate in everything we do and lead the way with speed and boldness.
Why we do it
Few Swedish organizations are big enough to drive AI adoption on their own. We need collaboration in all sectors to build the required competence, tools, and resources, make bold decisions and share the results. Instead of reinventing the wheel, we run even faster together.
Invest together, share with many
150+ PARTNERS
Our partner network ranges from small startups to global corporations, municipalities as well as governmental agencies, and universities and research institutes.
BROAD FUNDING
AI Sweden is funded by Sweden’s innovation agency Vinnova and the Swedish Agency for Economic and Regional Growth and the European Regional Development Fund as well as AI Sweden partners.
Solving societal challenges
AI is not the future. It is here and now. But the value of AI remains largely untapped. We spearhead national initiatives spanning AI in healthcare, energy systems, and Swedish municipalities. AI Sweden is involved in every step of this journey, from cutting-edge research and talent programs that bridge the skills gap to generating tools and frameworks for organizational change.
AI Labs
In AI Labs, we shape the future of AI. Here, our partners collaborate in the development of their capabilities in parallel with developing high-value AI solutions and infrastructure for creating AI. You can also engage with some of the brightest minds in AI research on topics such as Natural Language Understanding, Edge Learning and AI & Security.
Ecosystem
Sweden needs a robust and highly attractive Swedish AI ecosystem propelling organizations to use AI for solving key societal and business challenges. AI Sweden brings together over 150 partners across the public and private sectors as well as academia and research institutes. We collaborate in everything we do and invest together in building knowledge and strengthening our ecosystem through a variety of activities.
AI Adoption
Adopting AI solutions will open up new opportunities and ways to address challenges - but it requires working with the whole organization and getting AI on the leadership's agenda. We build tools for change management, AI courses, talent programs, maturity assessments and much more together with and for our partners to take the next steps on their AI journey.
Governance
AI Sweden is a partner organization. The main bodies of our governance structure are the Partner Forum and the Steering Committee.
Work at AI Sweden
You’ll be part of a diverse and highly skilled team with inspiring colleagues all working with a higher purpose in mind than “just” tech. To us, artificial intelligence is a force for positive societal change.
