About Swedish Chamber of Commerce

The Swedish Chamber of Commerce for the United Kingdom is the ultimate platform for entrepreneurs and businesses within the Swedish-British business community. Founded in 1906 – by business and for business – they have represented, inspired, and promoted members, extended commercial relations between our countries, and delivered first-class services and events for over a century. 

This in-person conference examined the unpredictable impact of the growing Outer Thinking trends we all face, from tech to the climate emergency, the future workforce and threats to global trade plus globalisation.

It brought together 140 business leaders, entrepreneurs, politicians and academics to examine the unthinkable impact on 21st century leadership from current disruptions.

TTU’s Nik Gowing was a joint moderator. During six hours he chaired half the sessions.

Swedish Chamber of Commerce Chief Executive Peter Sandberg said:

“I have worked with Nik for a couple of years now, and knew instantly that I wanted him more involved in our Summit. He has a sharpness and edge which helps create that electric conversation whilst delivering a super professional presentation. A true professional, he provides input in every detail to ensure the success of the event.”
