Vinnova Mission-Oriented Innovation

Vinnova Mission-Oriented Innovation sits under Vinnova, Sweden's Innovation Agency, as the part of its portfolio that backs large consortia around defined national and European transitions. The active missions in the record include Climate Neutral Cities by 2030 through Viable Cities, Climate Neutral Industry, Healthy Living, Sustainable Mobility, and Sustainable Food Systems. The annual mission pool is estimated at roughly SEK 1.5 billion. The program uses grant funding for Swedish consortia that usually bring together industry, research institutions, public-sector actors, and sometimes civil society. Individual projects typically run from SEK 5 million to SEK 100 million, with a 50 percent match requirement, pilot evidence expected, and eligibility limited to Swedish registration and operations for companies while non-profits are allowed. The record also shows multi-year commitment patterns, with recent examples reaching SEK 350 million across six industry-digitalisation projects and SEK 160 million across 26 AI and digitalisation projects. The best fit is a coalition that can solve a transition problem with a concrete implementation path, not a lone applicant looking for a small pilot. Applicants succeed when they can align to a named mission, assemble the right consortium early, and show that the project can move from research or demonstration into broader deployment.
