The annual report of 2024 reflects the fact that Nordic Innovation is now moving from one mission to another, and that 2024 marked an end to the programs that we have worked with for the past four years.
The report gives examples of projects that Nordic Innovation has worked on during 2024, it highlights results, and it shows how Nordic Innovation is contributing to making the Nordic's the most sustainable and integrated region in the world by 2030. It also includes snapshots of achievements from 2021–2024 and showcases how projects from this mission have contributed to reaching Vision 2030.
AI, health data, minister interview and much more
The report contains around 30 stories from programs, projects and results. This is a short sneak peek from some of the stories:
The Annual Report 2024 provides insights into the development of the new Nordic-Baltic AI Center. Mikael Ljungblom from AI Sweden shares his experiences in establishing a national AI center and explores how the Nordic region can benefit from these learnings.
Data sharing has been recognized as a key driver of healthcare innovation. The Annual Report 2024 includes an interview with Rasmus Malmborg, who explains why data sharing is essential for developing new healthcare solutions. He also gives examples of Nordic Innovation projects that combine health data and AI.
Nordic Innovation has been working with circular business models since 2018. In the Annual Report 2024, we take a closer look at some of the circular tools developed to support Nordic companies in their transition to circular business models. We also speak with a participant from the Circular Business Model Workshops to learn how the experience has helped their company become more circular.
In 2021, a study concluded that the Nordic region has major, untapped potential as a sustainable supplier of the raw materials the world needs to become a low-carbon emission society. In the Annual Report 2024 you can learn more about the Nordic Forum on Raw Materials, which aims to strengthen the Nordic mining and minerals sectors. You can also meet Maria Súner from the Swedish Association of Mines, Mineral and Metal Producers (Svemin) who highlights the Nordic’s potential as a raw material supplier in Europe.
The Nordic’s role in Europe is also highlighted by Sweden’s Minister of EU Affairs and Nordic Cooperation, Jessica Rosencrantz. In an interview, she discusses Nordic cooperation as a key driver of innovation and underscores the importance of the Nordic voice within the EU.
