Welcome to The British-Swedish Chamber of Commerce
The British-Swedish Chamber of Commerce is a net-working organisation that consists of around 120 member companies all of whom are interested, or engaged, in trade between Sweden and the UK. The objective of the Chamber is to promote, study, extend, advance and protect commercial and industrial relations between our two countries.
We create interesting forums where senior executives of international companies come together with leaders from political, economic and business life.
CEO of Volvo Cars Stephen Odell speaks at the Residence
The members of the Chamber were given the chance to come and listen to Stephen Odell, the current CEO of Volvo Cars over a breakfast at the Residence. Mr. Odell spoke about his previous work experiences leading to Volvo Cars and the current situation of ownership the company faces with Ford and the Chinese car manufacturer Geely. Mr. Odell pointed out a few key points for the survival and opportunities facing Volvo Cars in the near future.
The British Ambassador was present at the breakfast and we thank him and the embassy for the invitation.
There is a close cooperation between the British Embassy and the Chamber. The Ambassador H E Andrew Mitchell is Honorary Chairman of the Chamber. The Chamber also has on the board the Head of the UK Trade and Investment at the Embassy. The Ambassador is here seen with the Chairman of the Board Mr Björn Savén.
