Reworking the dynamics

SwIdeas is a Swedish enterprise with a social mission that focuses on environmental and social sustainability. 

We rework the dynamics by offering needs-based, innovative and creative solutions in education and research.

  • Our unit for community development focuses on projects for sustainable development and community empowerment. We partner with new and well-established organisations in transnational projects which have a positive impact on the society at large.

  • We offer consultancy and diverse services to help you in launching or developing your business idea, to support responsible business development and innovation, and to give a hand in project management.

  • We offer programs, courses and mentorship in the fields of sustainability, entrepreneurship, circular economy, women empowerment, diversity management and (resilient) project management.
