Sometimes it takes a certain amount of madness to create something unique. Perhaps King Karl XI was aware of this when he founded a naval port on an island, far out at sea, without any fresh water. And perhaps this was where the rich innovation history of Karlskrona begins. Challenges create innovative thinking.

A creative spirit attracts creative people. From af Chapman and his revolutionary ship building, to the innovative companies of today, with a university college at the forefront. A development driven forward through consistently developing new ideas. Limits that are extended and exceeded. In an environment with room to be bold, where the will to try new things leads to success.

Because in Karlskrona we dare. From successful companies to driven individuals, we take on new challenges. We are the modern world heritage city, with experience of solving the challenges of the future, since 1680. And we will continue do it in the same way we always have – through innovative thinking, creativity, and courage.
