This is why we choose Kista
Over 1,000 ICT companies have chosen Kista as their home since IBM and Ericsson moved here in the ’70s. The reasons are many. An entrepreneurial atmosphere, Kistas vicinity to Arlanda Airport as well as Stockholm city centre and of course the openness and cooperation between business, research and academia – all lead to new innovations, business deals, development and growth.
Håkan Eriksson, CTO, Ericsson
“Kista Science City is at the heart of our global operations and a natural location for our head office. Kista Science City is today one of the world-leading clusters in mobile communication and is therefore an obvious headquarters for Ericsson. Its proximity to Arlanda Airport and the availability of skilled co-workers are important components in the success of the Kista Science City cluster.”
Staffan Truvé, CEO, Interactive Institute and its sister institute SICS
“We look forward to an exciting future where we create networks with engineers and researchers in Kista Science City together with our leading combination of art and technology.”
Roger Gudmundsäter, CEO, iTell
“In Kista Science City, we are closer to the market’s decision-makers. Even if we could sit anywhere in the world and do the same job, the proximity to clients is extremely important. In addition, the area is easily accessible, close to the E4 motorway and with excellent parking facilities. There is also a wide range of facilities for staff, everything from sports and training facilities to a variety of lunch restaurants and retail outlets. The energy at Kista Science City makes it highly dynamic and offers a good working environment.”
