Business

It is within the three areas health and sports, culture and tourism, and media and IT that many of Falun’s strong and dedicated entrepreneurs come together and create new ventures. A centre for education and business has been set up at the Dalregement Business Park, and Falun is expanding within other areas too. Together we work to create a dynamic and creative business environment for small and large companies, as well as newly started and well-established firms. World-leading groups such as Stora Enso, Ericsson, Scania and Cederroth International are represented in Falun. The world is changing, and so is Falun. Falun is where business, the university, the municipality and the county together create growth and renewal.
