The preliminary study will investigate and give answers to how and in what form the Sundsvall region will run a joint International House. The results of the preliminary study will form the basis for an implementation project, which will contribute to the conditions for more existing companies to grow and for new companies to choose to establish their operations in the Sundsvall region by enabling an increased supply of skills. The goal is to create growth by providing the region with international excellence. The purpose of an International House is to establish an organized service that will facilitate and create conditions for both existing and new companies in the work of recruiting and staffing with the right international excellence.
