On Monday, Business Sweden hosted a high-level seminar in collaboration with Ambassade de Suède en France, as part of the 2025 UN Ocean Conference (UNOC3) in Nice. HRH Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden, alongside Romina Pourmokhtari, Sweden’s Minister for Climate and the Environment, and Agnès Pannier-Runacher, France’s Minister for Ecological Transition, Biodiversity, Forests, the Sea and Fisheries, joined business leaders and policymakers to explore Swedish solutions for protecting and sustainably managing our ocean and coasts. Both ministers delivered compelling remarks, emphasising the urgent need for concrete action to protect our ocean and coasts.

Together, these companies demonstrate how innovation can drive a sustainable future for our ocean. Photo by: Pelle T Nilsson

India records over 172,000 road traffic fatalities annually. In response, the Indian government is prioritising road safety, with an ambitious target to halve accident rates by 2030. This has led to the implementation of comprehensive safety regulations across vehicle and road engineering, as well as law enforcement. Driven by these efforts, India’s road safety market is expanding rapidly and is projected to reach USD 512 million by 2030. In this context, data-driven transport governance and technological solutions are playing a critical role in improving mobility systems. Swedish companies, recognised globally for innovation in transport and safety, are well-positioned to contribute to this evolving landscape. This webinar offers strategic knowledge and practical guidance on how to engage with India’s road safety ecosystem, supported by Team Sweden’s resources on the ground.
