On 1 January 2018, Malmö University is expected to be granted full university status. We received this wonderful news at the beginning of the summer. The accreditation is a public acknowledgment of the importance of Malmö University in the development of Malmö. The university has been an important piece in the puzzle that is Malmö’s transi-tion from the past to the present and especially the future!

In addition to Malmö University, the city is also home to the higher education institutions World Maritime Univer-sity, Malmö Art Academy, Malmö Academy of Music and Malmö Theatre Academy. And looking slightly further afield, we have Lund University and the universities in Copenhagen and Roskilde. It is important to have access to high-quality higher education. Higher education is re-quired to meet demand for expertise from both trade and industry and the public sector.

Our labour market is constantly growing. On average, 123 new job vacancies per day are added in Malmö, ac-cording to the Swedish Public Employment Service. And the jobs market is likely to remain at this level for quite a while in the future. The fastest growing sectors are services such as restaurants and commerce. Demand for engineers within different areas of specialisation remains high.

At the time of writing, border controls are creating uncertainty for the thousands of people commuting across the bridge. The situation is severely hampering the develop-

ment of a common labour market in the Öresund region. A region whose population is expected to pass the four million mark next year. A region with more than a quarter of a million companies!

The workforce in Malmö is 165,000 strong. The workforce has grown by more than 40% in the last twenty years and the number of people living in Malmö is expected to reach 375,000 in ten years’ time.

This is why we are constantly striving to be a city that is at the forefront of development. A modern city where we want to live, spend time in and work.

Malmö is attracting a lot of interest and the city is buzzing with activity. Many players see Malmö’s potential and want to be involved and invest in Malmö’s future.

PLANNED AND ONGOING PROJECTS INCLUDE:

— STUDIO (on Universitetsholmen)

— Culture Casbah (1)

— Malmö Industrial Park in Norra hamnen (Northern Harbour)

— Marine Education Centre (2)

— Malmö Saluhall indoor food market

— Malmöringen suburban rail service and the station at Rosengård

— Sports and rock climbing centre

— Development of Skåne University Hospital (SUS)

— New residential district in Limhamn

— Expansion of the Norra Sorgenfri district

— Continued expansion of Västra Hamnen (Western Harbour)

— Continued expansion of the Hyllie district (3)

TWO NEW IMPORTANT RESEARCH FACILITIES ARE UNDERWAYThey are being built in Lund, 20 km north of Malmö. In addition to exciting new research opportunities, the facilities will generate further job opportunities and more growth in the region.

MAX IV – is a synchrotron radiation laboratory. 2,000 researchers from around the world are expected to use the facility each year. The facility opened its doors in summer 2016. (4)

The ESS (European Spallation Source) – will be the world’s foremost material research facility using neutrons. It is anticipated that it will welcome 3,000 guest researchers per year and employ around 450 staff. It is due to open in 2023.

A TUNNEL BETWEEN DENMARK AND GERMANYThe Fehmarn belt tunnel will be constructed between Denmark and Germany and it is estimated that it will be completed in 2028. The tunnel will link Scandinavia with the continent and will reduce travel times considerably. The tunnel is also expected to have a positive impact on

both transport costs and the environment. The Öresund Bridge has played an important role in integration and growth in the Öresund region and it is forecast that the tunnel will have a similar significance for a competitive new, extended economic region.

METRO BETWEEN MALMÖ AND COPENHAGEN?Via a tunnel under the Öresund strait, the metro trip will take around 20 minutes. A metro would relieve the Öresund Bridge, which is expected to receive increased goods traffic when the fixed link between Denmark and Germany is completed. Space is also required for new, high-speed trains. The metro is also expected to help to increase everyday inte-gration across the water between the city centres in Malmö and Copenhagen.

Copenhagen Municipality and the City of Malmö are work-ing on phase 3 of the study, which has received EU funding. The project includes closer studies of appropriate tunnel designs and construction techniques, taking into account strict environmental requirements concerning Öresund strait, for instance. There are many factors in favour of a bored, twin-track tunnel. It is anticipated that Phase 3 will be completed in spring 2017. If the project gets the go-ahead, the metro could start operating around 2030-2035.

SEVERAL MAJOR INVESTMENTS HAVE BEEN COM-PLETED IN MALMÖ IN RECENT YEARS, INCLUDING:

— Malmö Live (conference centre, concert hall and hotel)

— The City Tunnel, including two new stations and expan-sion of Malmö C, as well as the Glasvasen office block (5)

THE ÖRESUND REGION

— The Öresund region comprises Skåne in Sweden and Zealand, Møn, Lolland-Falster and Bornholm in Denmark

— 3.9 million inhabitants (1.3 million on the Swedish side and 2.6 million on the Danish side)

— 25% of the total population of Sweden and Denmark live in the Öresund region

— The largest Nordic regional labour market, with 1.9 mil-lion people

— The region represents 26% of the countries’ total GNP

— Around 250,000 companies (2010)

— Around 145,000 students and 8,000 researchers at the region’s 14 colleges and universities

— In 2017, the population is expected to exceed 4 million people

The Öresund region is the largest and most densely populated metropolitan area in the Nordic countries. The Öresund region covers parts of two countries, Sweden and Denmark, and travel between the two is simple via the Öresund Bridge, which was opened on 1 July 2000. The 16-kilometre link runs between Malmö and Copenhagen.

THE ÖRESUND REGION IS GROWING INTO A MAJOR ECONOMIC REGIONWhen the Fehmarn belt tunnel, a fixed link between Den-mark and Germany, is completed in 2028, it will open the way for a competitive extended region. Travel and transport times will reduce significantly and positive effects are expected in terms of integration, growth, number of jobs, tourism, research and culture.

GOOD INFRASTRUCTURE

— Copenhagen International Airport (Kastrup) is easily ac-cessible by car or rail. The rail trip takes 21 minutes from Malmö Central Station

— Trains from Malmö, to Copenhagen Airport and to the city centre, depart every 10 minutes during rush hour. At other times, trains depart every 20 minutes

— Malmö Airport is located 30 km to the east of the city. An airport bus is available, which takes 40 minutes

— Malmö is home to one of Sweden’s largest cargo ports. The port is a combined goods and passenger harbour. A comprehensive expansion project has recently been car-ried out with new areas, terminals and a logistics centre.

— Since it opened in 2010, the new City Tunnel has given Malmö an even better infrastructure and two new sta-tions. Commuting times for a number of routes were shortened and ease of movement in the region was increased still further.

— The city has two ring roads (Outer and Inner Ring Road), which facilitate efficient logistics.

— The proximity to a well-developed road and rail network makes it easy to transport goods and people, both within Sweden and to Scandinavia and Europe

THE NATIONAL NEGOTIATION ON HOUSING AND INFRASTRUCTUREThe mandate of the National Negotiation on Housing and Infrastructure - one of the largest infrastructure investments ever seen in Sweden - is to develop new high-speed rail-ways between Stockholm and Gothenburg and Stockholm and Malmö, resulting in travel times of 2 and 2.5 hours respectively, as well as to facilitate improved accessibility and increased housing construction through improved public transport in the major cities in Sweden. The aim is for the project to be completed in 2035. Improved accessibility and capacity in and between the major cities in Sweden will offer both Malmö and the region a lot of potential to achieve sustainable growth and increased housing construction, and will benefit the labour market, the economy and the environment. Negotiations commenced at the beginning of 2016.

The City of Malmö focuses on a number of profile areas in a business context. These are areas in which Malmö’s strengths are considered to be particularly successful in terms of more employment opportunities and improved growth. Read more on www.malmobusiness.com under “Profile areas”.

HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY (1)The overall goal for Malmö Tourism is to attract more visitors to Malmö. This will produce more economic turnover and more jobs in the hotel and catering industry in Malmö. The hotel and catering industry is very important in terms of the labour market and growth. Malmö Tourism is actively working to advertise Malmö’s at-tractions and to provide an impetus for Malmö to keep developing more attractive offerings in the future.

— The collaboration between the City of Malmö and Destinationssamverkan Malmö AB (structured collaboration between the City of Malmö and commercial and non-profit players in the city) has been expanded and intensified

— Malmö Live, which opened in 2015, has helped attract new meetings and con-ferences to Malmö, not least benefiting the hotel and catering sector in Malmö

— The hotel and catering industry is very important to commerce in Malmö. Just over 20% of visitor consumption takes place in the city’s shops

CLEANTECH (2)The City of Malmö aims to become a “cleantech city” – a place with a unique envi-ronmental technology profile combining economic, social and ecological sustain-ability. Together with industry, the university and other actors, the municipality aims to create an attractive location to start up, operate and develop companies in the cleantech field in Malmö.

In the City of Malmö, this profile area is driven via Malmö Cleantech City. By offering various networking opportunities, testbed activities and a physical meeting place, it facilitates business opportunities and development of expertise and technology.

— Cleantech Scandinavia’s annual meeting Cleantech Capital Day, which involves 70 international investors, was once again held in Malmö in May 2016

— With regards to the startup scene, we are seeing a trend towards smaller, smart and low-cost solutions

— On the investor side, there has been a shift from venture capital funds and indus-trial investors towards companies seeking to raise capital from small-scale savers via marketplaces such as NASDAQ First North and Aktietorget

COMMERCE (3)Malmö will continue to develop and grow as a regional cen-tre for commerce and visitors. Commerce has experienced strong growth in the last 10 years and employs around 20% of all those working in the retail sector in Skåne. As the popu-lation in Malmö and the region grows, demand will continue to increase. An attractive city, the major commercial centres in the town, conference and exhibition facilities, events and leisure activities will contribute to this.

— Commerce in the city is continuing to develop, the vacan-cy rate fell in 2015 and the range of shops was expanded

— Shopping in the city is increasingly interspersed with restaurants, cafes and other experience-based industries. Malmö was awarded its first Michelin star this year

— Malmö is continuing to grow as a shopping destination for tourists

HEAD OFFICES (4)

Malmö is an attractive location for corporate headquarters. Its geographical location and infrastructure, including a journey time of 20 minutes to Copenhagen Airport, have been a deciding factor in the establishment of many head offices. A large recruitment base, with access to a young, well-educated and international workforce, is another factor that has attracted companies.

— Companies which set up their head offices in Malmö in 2015 include IKEA’s Hubhult, IKANO Bank, IKANO Fastigheter, Atos Medical and Maxomorra

— The companies were primarily established in Hyllie and the surrounding area, as well as in Västra hamnen and the city centre

LIFE SCIENCE (5)Together with the Copenhagen region, Skåne constitutes the third largest geographical area for pharmaceuticals and biotechnology in Europe. Malmö is an excellent place to establish life science activities, whether as companies or research projects. Immediate access and proximity to first-class medical research, advanced medical care and high-tech companies provide a unique environment for companies in the area. We are more than happy to help provide access to this unique network in connection with the establishment of head offices.

— A sector undergoing constant change. For instance, new business models through consolidation and acquisition of

small, innovative companies. Continued outsourcing of production and clinical chemistry

— Malmö hosts several scientific national and international conferences and meetings, e.g. Senior i Centrum (Focus on senior care), Framtidens specialistläkare (Specialised doctors of the future), European Society of Neuroradiol-ogy annual meeting

— Medeon science park – a growing cluster and hub for life science activities in Malmö

LOGISTICS (6)Malmö Industrial Park is one of the most attractive places to establish manufacturing, processing and logistics companies in northern Europe. Its strategic position makes it easy to distribute incoming and outgoing flows of goods by both sea, rail and road. It attracts companies looking for access to land for activities requiring tri-modal transportation, proces-sing operations and a connection to a port.

— Malmö Industrial Park has an area of 750,000 m2 that has yet to be developed to provide space for the establish-ment of new companies

— Skanska has reserved land on the site for the construction of a new warehouse concept – cubic storage

— Prologis has also reserved land on the site for an area of around 100,000 m2, and is planning to establish a logis-tics facility on the site

CREATIVE INDUSTRIES (7)Investments in film, TV, computer games, web-based servi-ces, mobile platforms, design and advertising have created a strong potential for the experience industry in Malmö. Mo-ving images in new media and on digital platforms such as mobile phones and computers provide good opportunities for growth. The vision is to be an expanding centre where leading business, education and research at an international level generate growth.

— Malmö has become a film city! Documentary films, short films, full-length films and films for children and young people are being produced in Malmö

— The vision is for Malmö to become a significant and prominent design city

GROWTHMalmö is doing well and the develop-ment is monitored through 10 key performance indicators. This positive development was rewarded when the city received the prize of Growth Municipality of the Year 2009*.

* The Growth Municipality of the Year prize is awarded by Arena för Tillväxt and SWECO Eurofu-tures

— Destination Malmö is growing at breakneck speed. In 2015, 1,576,968 hotel overnight stays were recorded in Malmö. This amounts to 170,199 more guest nights than in 2014 and corresponds to an increase of +17%

— 73% of overnight stays were by Swedish visitors and 27% by international visitors. The largest number of overnight stays was by visitors from Denmark, Germany, the UK and Norway

— On average, Malmö recorded a 66.2% occupancy rate for hotels in 2015 (comp. with 64.6% in 2014)

— More than 1,200 meetings and conferences with more than 50 delegates took place in Malmö in 2015. This was an increase of 389 meetings com-pared with 2014

— The hotel and catering industry is very important to commerce in Malmö. Just over 20% of visitor consumption takes place in the city’s shops. The Swedish krona exchange rate is currently very favourable for Danish people, which is having an impact on both the number of day and overnight visitors from Denmark

— Malmö as a destination is given a lot of coverage in the international media, which likes to write about Malmö as a city for food, meetings, music and sports, and also as a mecca for fans of detec-tive series such as The Bridge

WORKFORCEMalmö has a flourishing commercial life with strong growth and belief in the future. In the 1990s, the city went through a tough period in which several industries closed down and the active workforce shrank. During this period, decisions were taken concerning e.g. the foundation of Malmö University (established in 1998) and the construc-tion of the Öresund Bridge (inaugurated in 2000). Two initiatives among many that have contributed to Malmö’s development from an industrial town into a knowledge city.

— After a slight downturn in 2009 due to the financial crisis, the workforce has increased again over the last five years and is now at an all-time high

— 165,265 people were employed in Malmö

— An increase of 1.4% compared with the previous year and an increase of 23% over 10 years. In 20 years, the number of people working in Malmö has increased by 39%

— Over the last 10 years, it is primarily the business ser-vices and education sectors that have grown. Manufac-turing has decreased

From 2009, the data is shown according to the new division into sectors. For this reason, there is a break in the time series in the graphs. Even in those cases where the sector name is the same, both before and after 2009, such as “manufacturing”, the underlying division may have changed. Therefore, the data for the new and old divisions into sectors cannot be compared. We have chosen to retain and present the old definitions in order to give an indica-tion of the long-term development.
