High-level business delegation to Texas, USA

Monday March 16, 2026 00:00 - 00:00 Houston, Texas | Mar 16 - Mar 18, 2026

Main sponsor: Business Sweden

We are pleased to invite you to join Sweden’s upcoming high-level business delegation to Texas on 16-18 March 2026, in conjunction with the official inauguration of Sweden’s new Consulate General in Houston.

The official inauguration is also part of Sweden’s Commemoration of the 250th Anniversary of U.S. Independence.


Why join the delegation to Texas?

Texas is one of the world’s most dynamic and fast‑growing economies, with distinctive strengths in areas that closely align with Sweden’s industrial capabilities and innovation leadership — including space technology and systems, life sciences and advanced health solutions. 

With over 90 Swedish companies already established in the state, Texas represents both a significant existing footprint and substantial untapped potential for deeper partnerships, expanded operations, and new market opportunities.

The opening of Sweden’s new Consulate General in Houston strengthens Sweden’s presence not only in Texas but across the Mid West and South Western regions of the US.

The delegation visit will focus on exploring new collaboration opportunities between Swedish companies and Texas’ leading innovation and industrial ecosystems.


By joining the delegation you will get the unique opportunity to:

  • Engage in curated visits and high‑level dialogues in Houston and Austin focused on space, life sciences, advanced technology, and innovation ecosystems.
  • Explore commercial, industrial, and research partnerships with leading actors within sectors where Swedish solutions and expertise are in high demand.
  • Connect with senior decision‑makers, key industry leaders, and major institutions driving technological and economic development in Texas.
  • Deepen strategic insights into one of the United States’ most influential innovation environments. Texas is increasingly spearheading the national and global initiatives in sectors such as aerospace and biotechnology
