Implications for Swedish companies after the US midterm elections

The US remains the largest export market for many Swedish companies. As political developments continue to shape the business landscape, the November midterm elections are expected to influence trade policy and industrial investment. How can Swedish businesses navigate these changes and seize opportunities in the US market?

Join us to learn about recent developments in US politics and what they could mean for Swedish companies. You will also gain insights into how Business Sweden supports companies throughout their US market journey, from market entry strategy to establishment and expansion.

 Drawing on our local presence across the United States and close dialogue with industry leaders, policymakers, and investors, we will discuss:

• Key election outcomes and their potential business implications
• Expected developments in trade policy, tariffs, and industrial policy
• Impacts on sectors including manufacturing, life science, energy, infrastructure, technology, and mining
• Regional opportunities and risks across different US states
• Practical recommendations for Swedish companies navigating an increasingly uncertain environment
