Developing new alternatives using test beds
A testbed is an environment where companies, academia and other organisations can work together to develop, test and introduce new products, processes or organisational solutions in a specific field. All Swedish testbeds are listed on the Testbed Sweden website. Testbeds provide equipment, pilot machines, virtual and exploratory environments. They bring together expertise, industries, problem owners and users to develop future solutions faster.
