About

Transatlantic Day 2025 in Stockholm and, for the first time ever, also in Gothenburg, explored the future of the Swedish-American relationships in a range of critical topics, including AI and space, Sweden's NATO membership, and insights into the economic outlook and business development. The event sparked stimulating, insightful, and thought-provoking conversations, cultivating meaningful relationships. We were honored to once again welcome HRH Prince Daniel of Sweden to the occasion.
