The event features keynote speakers, networking opportunities, and further insight on the technological advances of Sweden’s business. Not only is the U.S. Sweden’s largest trading partner outside the EU, but Swedish companies also create over 350,000 job opportunities in the U.S. SACC Summit is hosted by a different local chamber every year, highlighting different regional opportunities and challenges once a year.
