The Swedish Manufacturing R&D Clusters
In 2020, RISE was appointed to coordinate the Swedish Manufacturing R&D Clusters, with a widened scope to all companies related to Swedish production.
The Swedish vehicle manufacturing companies have since long initiated a structure for coordination of research and innovation - the Swedish Manufacturing R&D Clusters. In 2020, RISE was appointed to coordinate the clusters.
Eight clusters are active today within different expertise areas within manufacturing R&D. Four clusters deal with specific manufacturing process areas, while four clusters focus on supporting areas of importance for sustainable production.
Advantages from taking part in a cluster
The objective of the clusters is to develop sustainable manufacturing systems for innovative products, both with respect to economic and climate goals. A member of a cluster can obtain the following:
- Creating solutions to challenges together with other industrial and research partners
- Early information on on-going initiatives
- Knowledge and benchmark through the network
- Possibility to propose content in national and European R&D roadmaps.
