Nordic Infracenter
Nordic Infracenter has the ambition to become a hub for railway related companies in Sweden. We make concrete efforts to strengthen small and medium sized railway related companies and training actors, and develop their competitiveness. This applies to local, regional, national and international markets. The rail industry is faced with major challenges regarding competence, education and security – Nordic Infracenter is an initiative to meet these challenges in short and long term, in close cooperation with the partners. Nordic Infracenter contributes to promote and position Nässjö region as a significant and leading player in the Nordic rail sector. It is no coincidence that the initiative for Nordic Infracenter was taken in Nässjö: there is a long history of rail competence. From a geographical rail perspective, Nordic Infracenter is centrally located, with Göteborg, Stockholm and Malmö in about two hours away. This is also the only city in the country where you can find the railway going in six directions. Nordic Infracenter also wants to be centrally located in a figurative sense: a place where the rail industry will combine, among other things, skills development and labor supply.
