Stockholm is a welcoming city that combines the charm of Old World design with modern style and the kind of efficient, well-organized infrastructure that groups need for successful corporate meetings. It is also highly desirable for groups interested in environmental stewardship.
Practical, sustainable
Planners’ and attendees’ practical considerations are easily covered in Stockholm. With direct flight connections from
all over the world, it’s quick and easy to reach. It’s served by several air carriers from the east and west coasts of the United States, and is just a little more than a two-hour flight from major European cities like London and Paris.
Stockholm is the first-ever winner of the European Green Capital award and has adopted a unique approach to sustainability; every aspect of environmental, economic and social impact is part of the equation.
