Ep 78: Innovation in Sweden w/ Uminova Innovation

The Bear Necessities of Entrepreneurship

Oct 21 2022 • 24 mins

This episode of #TBNE was filmed in the Umea, Sweden with our friends at Uminova Innovation. Rob sits down IRL with Peter Bäckström, Head of International Business Development. Peter and Rob met back in the pre-pandemic days of 2019 when Peter pitched the idea to go to NYC to develop strategic partnerships for their incubator companies.

On that trip, Rob and Peter met along with Phil Delvecchio and Maria Olofsson to establish a key partnership for US GTM training and scaling.

Finally, Rob was able to make it to Umea to meet with the team, and incubators, do some workshops, and of course record this pod!

Check out the episode as we get into the “how” of building international relations and partnerships, what an incubator does, and some of the exciting innovations coming out of Sweden!
