The Swedish Chamber of Commerce in China is pleased to extend an invitation to our members on behalf of Business Sweden and Swedish Chambers International (SCI) to join the online launch of the seventh edition of the Global Business Climate Survey.



Each year, Team Sweden China publishes the Business Climate Survey for Mainland China (read the 2026 report here), which forms part of a wider global study covering 41 markets. Together, these markets gather insights from Swedish companies around the world, which are compiled into the Global Business Climate Survey. The 2026 edition will be launched on June 11th in Stockholm.


The presentation will explore the latest insights into the experiences, challenges, and expectations of Swedish companies operating across the globe. Hosted on sight at the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce, and online, this year's event is particularly significant as the survey reaches its broadest global scope to date.


Gain invaluable perspectives on economic trends, key success factors, local market conditions, and sustainability – while comparing results across markets and regions, providing a unique overview of the global business environment for Swedish companies.


Based on insights from more than 2,250 executives at Swedish companies worldwide, the report provides an important knowledge base for understanding how Swedish businesses succeed internationally.

The event will be moderated by Lena Sellgren, Chief Economist at Business Sweden. Do not miss this opportunity to gain strategic insights and hear from industry leaders.
