From autonomous vehicles and electric freight to smart public transport and fossil-free mobility, Sweden is leading the transition towards safer and more sustainable transport.
As the world moves towards cleaner, smarter and more connected transport systems, innovation is essential to reduce emissions, improve safety and create more efficient mobility solutions.
In Sweden, researchers, startups and global companies collaborate across the entire transport and automotive ecosystem – from research and development to production. With strong clusters in Gothenburg, Småland and the Mälar region, Sweden brings together expertise in automotive safety, autonomous mobility, electromobility, digital technologies and sustainable fuels. The country is also home to around 17 transport test beds supporting innovation in areas such as autonomous driving, AI, connected systems and battery technologies.
Swedish innovators are already shaping the future of mobility. Einride is developing world-leading digital, electric and autonomous freight technology, while Candela has launched the world’s first electric passenger hydrofoil ferry, helping reduce both travel times and emissions. Stockholm’s public transport network is also largely powered by low-carbon energy, with electric rail systems and buses mainly running on biofuels.
Are you working with mobility, electrification, autonomous systems or sustainable transport? In Sweden, engineers, researchers and technology specialists can help drive the future of safe, smart and fossil-free mobility. Here you will find world-class career opportunities in a welcoming, collaborative environment with a strong emphasis on innovation and quality of life.

![Anna Riwkin-Brick – a fearless pioneer in Swedish photography
Anna Riwkin-Brick (1908–1970) was a fearless pioneer in Swedish photography, capturing the world through her lens. Whether portraying celebrities or photographing the native Sami people, she made an impact.
Born to a Jewish family in todays Belarus, Anna moved to Sweden with her parents in 1915. Already at the age of 21, she had her own photo studio in Stockholm – rare for a woman at that time.
From the early 1950s until the final years of her life, Anna collaborated with Astrid Lindgren in creating ‘Children of the World’, a series of photo books for children, featuring her photos of children from northernmost Sweden all the way to Ethiopia.
Anna believed in the power of photography to bring people closer together.
This year, Sweden celebrates 250 years of Jewish life. Its an opportunity to recognise the Jewish minority and Jewish cultural heritage in Sweden.
