Stockholm

Stockholm is the capital of Sweden and the largest city in Scandinavia, home to over 1 million residents. Built across 14 islands where Lake Mälaren meets the Baltic Sea, the city offers a unique blend of urban life and natural beauty, extending out into the stunning Stockholm archipelago. Founded in 1252, Stockholm balances a rich history with a distinctly modern outlook.

As Sweden’s economic, political, and cultural hub, Stockholm boasts a thriving startup scene – often dubbed “Europe’s innovation hub” – alongside established financial institutions. It’s a major centre for corporate headquarters and hosts prestigious universities like KTH and Karolinska Institute. Expect a high quality of life, excellent infrastructure (including a famously artistic metro system), and a forward-thinking atmosphere ideal for digital nomads.
