Forest Business Accelerator
SCA is cooperating with start-ups through the Forest Business Accelerator. The Accelerator, which merges forest development with digitalization and entrepreneurship, is a joint venture. Participants is the business incubator Bizmaker, SCA, IBM and RISE through Biorefinery Cluster.
The Accelerator program provides selected forest start-ups with tailored business coaching for commercialisation and internationalisation. Through this investment, we see opportunities to build new relationships and initiate collaborations that contribute to the renewal of our industry. During the program, the participants have the opportunity to test and develop their ideas together with SCA and the other companies. Meetings between the participants open up a new level of contact and exchange of experience.
