Mellan 2021 - 2023 ledde RISE ett projekt där nätverket av följeforskare ställde samman resultaten från tio års följeforskning av kommunala innovationsprocesser.
Vinnova finansierar sedan 2013 utvecklingen av innovationsplattformar i flera svenska städer. Arbetet syftar till att utveckla nya arbetssätt och verktyg för att stärka städes kapacitet som innovationsarenor och stärka kommuners roll som innovationsaktörer. Vid varje innovationsplattform bedrevs följeforskning. Forskningen stärkte både Vinnova i sin roll som programägare och nationella innovationsmyndighet och medverkande kommuner i sin framväxande roll som innovationsaktörer.
Följeforskningen genomfördes i nära samverkan med respektive kommun. Följeforskarna bidrog till att stärka arbetet vid varje plattform genom sin praktiknära och stödjande metodik. De tog rollen som bollplank och expertstöd i kommunernas arbete. Följeforskarna var ”kritiska vänner” och bidrog i den lokala utvecklingen genom att sätta ord på ett reflekterande och teoretiskt sätt på den framväxande praktik som kommunernas innovationsarbete de facto utgör.
Syftet med den nationella samordningen av följeforskningen var att samla resultaten från tio års följeforskning och använda detta som underlag till en gemensam analys. På den här sidan finns länkar till rapporter, handböcker, avhandlingar och övriga publikationer som utvecklats vid respektive innovationsplattform. Här finns också länkar till inspelningar från den digitala turné som genomfördes under hösten 2023 där deltagarna i nätverket presenterade sin olika analyser och resultat. Varje föreläsning bygger på ett kapitel i den gemensamma antologi som publicerades vintern 2024 och som utgör slutrapporten av projektet.

Digitalization is something everyone is talking about, but few know what it actually means. This course is designed for you to receive support on the benefits of digitalization, where your company stands today, state the goal of digitalization and find what type of digitalization that is best suited for your company.
Digitalization means, among other things, to collect data and analyze it in a smart way. This can contribute to major savings and new revenue opportunities. In the course we show business examples and the benefits of connecting machines to the internet, saving data in cloud solutions and using artificial intelligence to predict production stoppages. The second course day includes a study visit with digitalisation in focus
The aim of the course is for the participant to increase their understanding of digitalisation in practice. The purpose is to support companies so that digitalisation skills in the industry are increased.
The course is aimed at those who lead the company's technological development (Construction, Production preparation / engineering, Maintenance, etc.).

This course inspires you to act smart and on time. An important part of this is that all employees are involved and that everyone knows the goal of digitalisation. The goal may be to reduce the number of downtime, reduce fuel consumption or reduce energy emissions.
By making smart investments and making them on time, you as a company can secure your sales. There are great opportunities with digitalization but also challenges, not least in terms of security, which we highlight in this course.
Some of the challenges are getting operators with them when implementing new technical solutions, making investments and finding the right technology.
Two day course. If given online it may be divided into several course days.
The course can be adapted to your needs. Contact us for a further discussion.
Does your company have a challenge in providing your skills? Do you want to attract the right staff to create innovation and productivity? Then this is the course for you.
Digitalisation with man in focus highlights research and industry examples where new technology is combined with knowledge of man. An attractive industrial workplace is created by shaping a culture that promotes health and creativity as well as gender equality and diversity. Today, there are major challenges linked to digitalisation and sustainability. One of these challenges is skills development. There is a lack of knowledge in new technologies such as AI and machine learning, and at the same time, few are applying to industry. For many, this is already a problem and it is difficult to both get and retain skills.
In this two-day course, you get through specific tips and understanding to capture and manage people for your company's future.
To create an attractive workplace, a few things are required: you understand your current situation, know where you want to reach and have the staff with you and can work to get there. Your home assignment helps you design a strategy for an attractive workplace by applying digitalization and equality in your company's reality.
At the end of the course you will receive a diploma.
Welcome to the course!
Concrete tips and understanding to capture and manage your person in the future of your company. Focus areas are new technology and work environment with digitalisation.
Participants from SMEs in roles of production manager, maintenance technician, operator, group manager, HR etc

FAIRCHAIN seeks to enable small and mid-size farmers and food producers to scale up and expand production of nutritious food through competitive intermediate value chains at the local and regional levels. In Sweden, we focus on the value chain around forest berries.
FAIRCHAIN - Innovative technological, organizational, and social solutions for FAIRer dairy and fruit and vegetable value CHAINs - is a four-year EU-funded project with 22 partners from 8 different countries. The project started in November 2020 and ended in december 2024.
To address the shortcomings of long and short food value chains while capitalising on their advantages, FAIRCHAIN will focus on the development of intermediate food value chains. In FAIRCHAIN, the benefits of the long effective value chains are combined with the benefits of the short local value chains.
FAIRCHAIN will pilot, test, and demonstrate technological, social and/or organizational innovations with the potential to bridge existing gaps though 6 intermediate value chains:
Central to the project is that all stakeholders in the value chain participate in workshops based on a common methodology for the project. In Sweden, we work with stakeholders from different parts of the forest berries value chain. In this way, we create a common understanding of different interests that will form the basis for common goals and strategies to bring about real changes.
For the forest berries' value chain, research is underway on how to make it easier to find berries in the forest. SLU in Umeå is collaborating with RISE in this research, which will form the basis for the innovative app we aim to develop. RISE is also responsible for the work on the sustainability evaluations of all case studies in the project.

3D-Action's goal was to raise awareness and increase knowledge about additive manufacturing and its benefits among small and medium-sized enterprises in Västra Götaland.
The 3D-Action project concluded in 2023, but efforts to promote accessibility to additive manufacturing have continued through 3D-Action 2.0, launched in 2024.
Here are two companies sharing their experiences with additive manufacturing, both opportunities and challenges:
3D Printing unlocks new opportunities for Totech
How additive manufacturing transformed Nordholms
During the winter of 2021-2022, 3D-Action also arranged three digital breakfast seminars on the theme "Discover the possibilities with additive manufacturing".
See the companies' presentations here (in Swedish)
The 3D-Action project was funded by Tillväxtverket (TVV) via REACT-EU and the European Regional Development Fund, and Västra Götaland region (VGR).
Both 3D-Action and 3D-Action 2.0 operate as independent projects but are linked to the Application Center for Additive Manufacturing (AM Center) through shared infrastructure and personnel. This ensures a strong and sustainable support to small and medium-sized enterprises in the Västra Götaland region, where research results are shared and directly disseminated to different sectors and organizations. In addition, this setup creates a co-creation environment by connecting the members of the Application Center of Additive Manufacturing to various small and medium-sized enterprises.

Tomorrow's mobility and transport system will require increased collaboration between independent actors. MAUS will develop patterns and principles for how to design such systems of systems(SoS) to increase transport efficiency and minimize unwanted side effects.
Urban mobility and transportation are being transformed rapidly. New services and modes of transportation appear. However, there is a lack in coordination and collaboration between different actors. This leads to inefficiencies in the transport system and to increased environmental impacts as well as congestion.
Systems of systems are a way of facilitating such collaboration. Given the transport needs, available transport capabilities, and the current traffic situation, there is a need to create a constellation of independent systems that solve the transport needs while fulfilling all the constraints.
MAUS develops patterns and principles for the design of such system of systems solutions, laying the foundation for commercial actors to develop products. MAUS will reach TRL 4 at the end of the project.
The project will move beyond centralized systems of systems and study how the transition to decentralized SoS can be facilitated.
To meet the 1.5 °C goal of the Paris Agreement, the world is facing a major transition. Companies and organisations will need to adjust and revise their strategies, plans and business models in order to remain competitive.
With a focus on a sustainable future, RISE’s experts analyse your existing strategies, plans or business models from both a technical perspective and a systems perspective. We identify opportunities as well as risks in your business and suggest new projects, new technologies or new collaborative partners in order to advance your business.
Committing to the forthcoming transition raises questions: What technology should we invest in? Who are our new collaborative partners? What skills are needed? What effect will new regulations have? How do we get started? RISE can help you to determine the way forward, shed light on the unknown, and future-proof your business.
With a focus on a sustainable future and your existing strategies, plans or business models as the starting point, our experts carry out analyses from both a technical perspective and from a systems perspective and identify opportunities and risks in your business. You choose which areas or issues should be prioritised in the analysis and the basis of the analysis – from an existing annual and sustainability report to separate workshops focusing on your priorities.
A typical analysis project as described above begins with a review of the areas you have selected for analysis. This is usually followed by a few workshops, culminating in SWOT analyses for each of the selected areas. The results are presented as a PPT report and in one or more seminars, which will serve as the starting point for the implementation of proposed measures in your organisation.
Each analysis project is unique and is based on your conditions and challenges. Depending on your business and the level of transition required, RISE will select relevant experts with solid experience in facilitating and implementing analysis projects according to a proven approach.
RISE is an independent state research institute and has technology experts in fields such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, electrification, hydrogen and CCS, as well as experts in areas with a system perspective such as governance, innovation management, circular transition, and upskilling and reskilling. We give you an impartial second opinion and can suggest new projects, new technologies or new collaborative partners in order to advance your business.
With a broad base in research and innovation, a focus on application, and a long-term perspective, we can help you take advantage of the opportunities presented by the transition, increase your in-house expertise, and ensure that your business model and operations are profitable and competitive in the future.

Hantering av personuppgifter: /en/about-rise/operations/mission-governance/policy-documents/privacy-policyThe media is an important part of the democratic system, in which the media, government and citizens have roles to play. The role of journalism in informing, reviewing and offering forums for debate is central to this and to the societal challenge that the project focuses on.
Purpose and goal
The project focused on the societal challenge with a growing polarization in the public discourse. Sweden's democracy model is based on citizen participation, where the media play an important role as a place for dialogue. With a change in media use, however, there is a need to explore new methods and digital tools for this. The goal of the project was to create a solution that can make it easier for people to meet in a safe and inclusive way. In the project, we explored e.g. how to use newspaper content constructively, in order to attract even those who do not usually participate.
Results
The project developed and suggest methods for working with constructive journalism and reader engagement, designed user scenarios and concept ideas, as well as an early prototype of a digital tool tested with user groups. The result serve as a basis for further development in a stage 3 project where the implementation of a chosen solution is further developed and tested in a real environment.
Project process
RISE, Mitt i Direkt AB, Norr Media AB and Södertörn University jointly carry out a design and prototyping process where constructive journalism and digital tools are tested together with user groups in a lab environment. Content in Mitt i Direkt AB's newspaper will be linked to the innovation process in the project.
