City's Business Support: New Ideas and Ongoing Work

Councillor Dennis Wedin (M) believes Stockholm's business climate has deteriorated, with a decline in new businesses, and proposes the city do more to support start-ups, including returning new business support to Stockholm Business Region and creating a consolidated permit center. Rapporteur Councillor Karin Wanngård (S) disputes this, arguing that the city's new model, Entreprenör Stockholm, is more effective, focusing on green transition, social entrepreneurship, and shortage occupations while ensuring better control over public funds. The City Executive Board therefore proposes the motion be addressed by referring to ongoing work.
