Knightec is going full speed ahead in the Swedish automotive industry

// Client Opportunities

The Swedish automotive industry is going at full speed and has been doing so for many years. One of the reasons is attractive and competitive products, with the ability to meet increasing demands on a global market. Increasing demands on financing solutions, new business models, and sustainable transportation of people and goods have driven development towards electrification.

The Swedish automotive industry is at the forefront of the development of electrified drivelines, which is partly due to a high level of technical vehicle competence in Sweden, and that we have the ability to build partnerships and collaborate to meet future challenges. The collaboration takes place within e.g. innovation projects funded by Vinnova or the Swedish Energy Agency, but also through government research institutes that have brought together Swedish industry, including the SEEL - Swedish Electric Transport Laboratory project with three facilities in BorĂĄs, Nykvarn, and Gothenburg to strengthen the development of electrified transport.

However, it is not only the market that is global but also the supply of knowledge and skills through partnerships. Recently we could read that Volvo Group is investing in Designwerk Technologies AG to complement their expertise in electromobility, and that Scania is collaborating with the French organization Engie to offer complete e-mobility solutions. Knowledge and competence are becoming more and more global. In order for us Swedish suppliers to be relevant as partners to the Swedish automotive industry, we must invest in specialist expertise. To stay a relevant supplier to the Swedish automotive industry, we at Knightec are investing in strengthening our capacities in the electromobility area with, among other things, specialist competencies in Battery Management Systems, Integration of batteries in vehicles, and Compliance with a focus on Product and Functional Safety.
