RISE at Almedalen 2026
In the current geopolitical climate, attention is increasingly focused on countries' competitiveness and total defence capability. This is clearly reflected during Almedalen Week 2026, where RISE will address these issues across two days, 23 and 24 June. We invite you to conversations on topics including the role of technological innovation in future defence, the supply preparedness of regions and municipalities, the transformation of the automotive industry, and Europe's digital sovereignty — to name but a few.
You are warmly welcome to join the conversation. We look forward to seeing you in Visby!
In addition to the seminars we are hosting on 23 and 24 June at Joda Bar and Kitchen, Skeppsbron 24, there will be plenty of opportunities to hear from our experts across a wide range of fields throughout Almedalen Week.
The menu to the right shows the programme for the seminars RISE is organising on Tuesday and Wednesday. If you are curious about what else is happening during Almedalen Week and the many contexts in which our experts are participating, you will find more information on the Almedalen Week website.
Would you like to meet us in Visby?
You are warmly welcome to drop by Skeppsbron 24 on Tuesday and Wednesday for a coffee, a conversation with our experts, or one of our seminars. Please feel free to contact our press officer Niklas Jälevik, or reach out directly to our experts if you have specific questions.
