Swedish Chamber Achievement Award 2023 – Husqvarna

Jury Motivation:

“Starting their office in The Netherlands in 1996, they have shown consistent revenue and profit growth throughout the years. Even though over 300 years of age, Husqvarna is more relevant than ever. They aim for innovative, sustainable solutions in forming our green environment for a variety of clients, including Forestry, Landscapers, Governments and Do it Yourself Enthusiasts. By replacing petrol infused equipment by battery-powered solutions Husqvarna is contributing to biodiversity and a safe working environment.”

Swedish Chamber Tech for Good Award 2023 – Getinge

Jury Motivation:

“Getinge is at the forefront of providing innovative technologies for Intensive Care, Cardiovascular Procedures, the Operating Room, Digital Health, Pharmaceutical Production and Research Laboratories, helping scientists move from idea to innovation. From threat to cure. From science to life. The Jury was especially charmed with Getinge’s case example of their partnership with Bluu Seafood in Germany, presenting their first market-ready products made from cultivated fish cells – a milestone in enabling people to eat seafood without compromising animal welfare or straining marine ecosystems.”

Swedish Chamber Entrepreneurship Award 2023 – Einride

Jury Motivation:

“Founded in 2019 in Sweden, and entering the Dutch market in 2022, Einride is truly at the forefront of transforming heavy-duty transport. 7% of global CO2 environmental emission are generated by diesel freight. Einride can help their partners to reduce shipping emissions by up to 95% by smart solutions in elektrified transport. Working with Lidl in The Netherlands, Einride will soon introduce trucks powered by renewable energy for Heineken and are in the process of expanding to global accounts like Mars and Pepsi.
