About Sweden

Where nature is everywhere

Sweden is a large country and yet there are only nine million inhabitants. About one million lives in the capital of Stockholm and its surroundings. All over the country you will hence find beautiful and wide-open natural scenery. The air is clean and the water is fresh to bathe in as well as to drink from the tap. Winters tend to be cold and dress the country all in white. It is also a fact that most Swedes speak lyrically about the Swedish summer.

The spectacular natural settings, from the wilderness in the far north of Swedish Lapland to the billowing fields of Skåne down south, also give many opportunities to outdoor experiences, may it be summer or winter. In the very north of Sweden you can see the Midnight Sun during summer. In early spring and autumn you may also be lucky to catch The Northern Lights.

A well functioning democracy

Sweden is a constitutional monarchy. The Swedish Riksdag holds the legislative power. 
It is a modern country with a rather informal working climate. The administration is well organized and most things function very well. That seems to be of great importance for many international companies and organizations that choose to place their conferences and congresses in Sweden.

Hotels, manors and castles

Meetings, conferences and courses are frequently held also in Swedish businesses and institutions. It is popular to go to a special meeting venue and all over Sweden you will find beautiful castles and manor houses that have been turned into hotels and conference venues with modern equipment. At Blick Möteskonsult we cooperate with hotels and meeting venues all over, and we have good knowledge on where to find what you need.

Hotels and meeting venues in general keep an internationally high standard. The service is modern and friendly and it helps that most people in Sweden speak English. The IT structure, as well as the transportation infrastructure is very efficient. As regards IT, Sweden is sometimes classified as the most developed nation in the world. The price level in Sweden is also moderate compared to many other European countries.
