Wallenberg invests 28 million in digital innovation

The Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation donates SEK 28 million to digital innovation. The funds go to the Swedish Center for Digital Innovation, a collaboration between the University of Gothenburg, the Stockholm School of Economics and Umeå University.

Spring has for many years supported SCDI in realizing digital innovations, especially towards the public sector. We are convinced that this resource injection will help SCDI establish itself as a world leader in its field, and we look forward to continued cooperation.

"Our vision is to be an internationally leading center for digital innovation, which is acknowledged for its academic excellence, educational commitment, and societal impact."
