Kongsberg, September 22, 2025 — Kongsberg Automotive (KA) marks its strategic investment in Mullsjö and Sweden today with an event attended by Sweden’s Infrastructure Minister Andreas Carlson, as well as representatives from local and regional partners.
KA has decided to consolidate its Swedish operations—production, development, and innovation—in Mullsjö. This move establishes a competence center and a comprehensive environment for innovation and manufacturing, in close collaboration with authorities, academia, suppliers, and customers.
The initiative forms part of KA’s long-term strategy to create value by being a strong competence partner, developing future-oriented solutions together with customers. Mullsjö was selected based on its robust technology ecosystem, established regional relationships, and proximity to strategically important customers.
Highlights from the event:
- Official participation and speech by Sweden’s Infrastructure Minister Andreas Carlson
- Signing of letters of intent with Region Jönköping, Jönköping University, ALMI, Mullsjö Folk High School, and Mullsjö Municipality
- Demonstration of KA’s advanced Steer-By-Wire technology in a demo vehicle — test-driven and “approved” by the minister
- Speeches by KA’s President & CEO Trond Fiskum, and regional partners on building competence and competitive business together
“KA has a long tradition in Sweden, and we have strong confidence in the future here. We aim to build on the region’s technology strengths and customer relationships and create an attractive environment for employees who want to work with future technologies in an exciting company. Developing strong competence in collaboration with local authorities and academia is essential for success,” says Trond Fiskum, President & CEO of KA.
“Kongsberg Automotive’s initiative is a good example of how industry, education, and the public sector can collaborate to drive growth and innovation – not only in Mullsjö and the region, but across all of Sweden,” says Andreas Carlson, Infrastructure Minister of Sweden.
