Region Skåne will host Skåne Innovation Day on December 1, 2025, to spur regional advancement. The event connects researchers, businesses, and public sector representatives to translate concepts into tangible benefits for Skåne residents. The focus extends beyond technology to encompass practical solutions for healthcare improvements, business expansion, and job creation. Attendees will participate in knowledge sharing, idea validation, and partnership formation. The program traces the progression of projects from initial research to commercially viable products. Region Skåne aims to optimize its innovation capacity through this initiative. Ida Åstrand, project leader at Region Skåne, emphasized the goal of improving conditions for Skåne-based projects to advance. The event seeks to strengthen ties between research institutions, companies, and government agencies, ensuring community-wide advantages from valuable concepts. Region Skåne prioritizes sustainable growth and a competitive business landscape. A key challenge involves bridging the gap between research and market entry for promising projects. This is often due to funding limitations, inadequate testing facilities, or a lack of appropriate collaborators.
