Welcome Week Umeå
Welcome to the inaugural Welcome Week for the city of Umeå! We will be hosting workshops on how to attract and retain international talent, as well as providing valuable insights to small- and medium-sized businesses in our region on how we can solve the talent shortage.
Included in the day’s activities:
-
An opportunity to network with fellow community leaders during our breakfast mingle
-
Interactive lectures and discussions on topics like allyship, unintentional bias, and the current state of diversity in Sweden
-
Training on how to develop inclusive intercultural communication and leadership
-
A lunch mingle with internationals who are looking to continue their careers in Umeå
The event will be co-hosted by New to Sweden, SweTeach, Vän i Umeå and Kompis Sverige. As organizations working for inclusion and integration, they have delivered workshops and talks at companies such as Google, Securitas, SEB, Nordea, Spotify, and Vattenfall.
This event will be held in English. Detailed program to be announced soon. For questions, please contact Hanna Dermes Gibson.
