Study tour of Sweden’s IT sector: Adapting our technology to local markets

Efficient and functional digital solutions rely as much on a nuanced understanding of the code as they do on the user experience, which is shaped by local customs, business practices and industry-specific challenges.??

This twofold focus on technical excellence and contextual relevance is essential to software development.?

In this spirit, our team travelled all the way to Sweden as part of the 'Export to Sweden' programme — gaining market insights that support our global strategy of driving digital transformation in both the public and private sectors, and ensuring our solutions meet diverse market needs.?

Entering the world of Swedish IT?

Our team's journey into the Swedish IT market began with a series of in-depth webinars focusing on the unique aspects and cultural dynamics of the sector.??

These sessions provided valuable insights into understanding the Swedish market, bridging the cultural gap and setting the stage for effective market entry and collaboration between Moldovan and Swedish IT companies.?

Study visit to Sweden's IT hub?

The study visit was the next important part of the programme, where our team collected valuable experience of the local IT sector intricacies.?

Exploring Kista science city: This hub, home to large IT companies and educational institutions, has provided us with a comprehensive understanding of the Swedish IT landscape and insights that are instrumental in shaping future collaborations and business strategies.?

Strategic workshops: Additionally, visionary workshops formed a core part of our itinerary, serving as strategic think-tanks to sculpt our future-forward export visions targeting sustainable growth by 2030.?

Development of an export blueprint?

Attending the Swedish workshops and exploring Tech City provided key insights into market entry, local business structures and recruitment dynamics. These learnings helped us develop a targeted export plan for the Swedish IT market.?

Beyond business?

To round off our technical agenda, we travelled to Stockholm - where we mixed our business objectives with the local culture, immersing ourselves in the city's rich history and sampling its traditional cuisine. Combining technical rigour with cultural exploration proved to be an excellent approach to opening our eyes to the subtleties of local customs, which is essential for fine-tuning our strategy in the Swedish and Nordic markets.??

In our mission to empower organisations around the world with transformative digital solutions, we've learned that real progress comes from being open to listening, adapting and merging with the unique cultural heritage and user needs of each region.???

This means we're ready to turn the lessons we've learned in Sweden into a technical language that resonates with the Swedish mindset. This way we develop technology that is not only technologically advanced, but also responsive to the cultural preferences of the end user.?
