⚓ Permanent home planned for Gothenburg’s iconic ship

Greencarrier and the City of Gothenburg have agreed on an ambition to create a long-term home for the Götheborg of Sweden, in central Gothenburg.

For decades, the Götheborg of Sweden has been a powerful symbol of Gothenburg’s history as a city of trade and shipping.

Greencarrier, which owns the ship, plans to develop an experience centre around the ship, which could generate significant tourism-related benefits for the city. The facility would also serve as Greencarrier’s new headquarters and include office space for external actors.

The aim is to open the new visitor destination in 2031.

Today Volvo Cars presented the EX60 – the first fully electric Volvo model designed, developed and manufactured in Gothenburg, Sweden 🙌

An important milestone for Volvo Cars, for the Gothenburg region and for Sweden. In tough global competition, it is a clear sign that Swedish engineering and industrial expertise remain strong.

For Gothenburg, this is about more than a new model. It is about jobs, innovation and long-term competitiveness 🚘

Sweden has been singled out by The Irish Times as a possible new “Silicon Valley of Europe”. And Gothenburg is highlighted as one of the most dynamic nodes behind the development.

This is an outside perspective that confirms what we see every day: that our region has something unique.

Here, leading research from Chalmers and Sahlgrenska, a fast-growing tech sector, international companies and service companies at the absolute forefront – not least in applied AI – and one of Europe’s most advanced industrial regions for electrification, mobility and life science all come together.

Gothenburg’s ecosystem is not only strong - it is on its way to becoming an international reference point for sustainable innovation. That is why it is ideal environment for forward-thinking talent and companies.
