Swedish-Polish Chamber of Commerce

What Swedish-Polish Chamber of Commerce does

The Swedish-Polish Chamber of Commerce (Svensk-Polska Handelskammaren) is a member-funded non-profit association (ideell förening) founded on May 30, 1929, that supports and develops Swedish-Polish business relations. Headquartered in Stockholm with a Warsaw-based Vice Chairman of the Board, the Chamber is the oldest bilateral chamber between Sweden and Poland and is approaching its centenary in 2029. It serves companies and organizations of all sizes across most industries that seek to establish, expand, or support cross-border business activities between Sweden and Poland, with named members including Skanska, Ericsson, BAE Systems Bofors, Medicover, Bonnier News, Ekoenergetyka, and Ultra Safe Nuclear Corporation.

The Chamber is not a technology company and builds no proprietary software, apps, or APIs. Its core product is membership, which provides access to a network of thousands of contacts, regular events (seminars, webinars, networking meetings), the "Our Chamber" newsletter, publications, and the "Hej Member!" podcast series recorded in both Sweden and Poland. The organization has developed a tiered partnership overlay: Strategic Partners (2,000-3,000 EUR annually) and Key Strategic Partners (4,000-5,000 EUR annually) receive enhanced visibility and tailored events, while Event Partners (1,000-2,500 EUR per event) sponsor specific events. Distribution is direct-to-member, with marketing concentrated on LinkedIn, YouTube, email newsletters, and events.

Revenue is generated from membership fees (undisclosed), Strategic Partnership fees, and Event Partnership fees, all on subscription or annual cadences. The Chamber operates as a community-led, non-profit association with a small core team (1-10 staff) including Executive Chairman Jerry Ralowski, Co-CEOs Jacek Ziółkowski and Adam Rogowski, and Vice Chairman Fredrik Udd. Adjunct board members from Business Sweden and the Polish Investment and Trade Agency (PAIH) provide institutional linkage to official Swedish and Polish trade promotion bodies.

Direct peers

• German-Swedish Chamber of Commerce: Bilateral chamber of commerce between Germany and Sweden. Operates with a near-identical member-funded, event-led, networking-based model targeting similar enterprise members (large industrial, automotive, defense corporates) across a single bilateral corridor.
• French Chamber of Commerce in Sweden: Direct bilateral chamber model operating in Sweden (similar Stockholm location) covering France-Sweden business relations. Offers member services, events, and networking following the same playbook as the Swedish-Polish Chamber.
• Scandinavian-Polish Chamber of Commerce (SPCC): Warsaw-based bilateral chamber covering Scandinavian-Polish business relations. Listed as a partner in the subject company's data; operates with a similar membership and event model targeting overlapping corporate members in the Swedish-Polish corridor.
• British-Polish Chamber of Commerce: Bilateral chamber between UK and Poland. Highly comparable model — membership-funded, events, networking, visibility services — but operating on a different bilateral corridor (UK-Poland rather than Sweden-Poland).
• Polish-Swedish Chamber of Commerce in Gdańsk: Direct bilateral peer organization serving the same Swedish-Polish corridor but focused on northern Poland (Gdańsk). Explicitly named in the subject company's partner data as a regional chamber with mutual cooperation; competes for the same corporate member base.
• Dutch Chamber of Commerce in Sweden: Stockholm-based bilateral chamber between the Netherlands and Sweden. Explicitly named in the subject company's partner data as a co-host of embassy events; operates the same member/event model in Stockholm.
• Netherlands-Polish Chamber of Commerce: Bilateral chamber between the Netherlands and Poland. Comparable membership-funded model with events, networking, and visibility services for corporates operating across a single bilateral corridor.

Others

• Pro Progressio: One of Poland's most active business-supporting organizations, named as a core strategic partner of the subject company. Not a chamber itself but an adjacent ecosystem player — a business-club association that facilitates Polish-foreign corporate networking and is structurally similar in mission.

Broad incumbents

• Polish Investment and Trade Agency (PAIH): Polish government agency for trade and investment promotion. Listed as a core strategic partner of the subject Chamber; PAIH serves a broader international mandate but covers Sweden-Poland flows as part of its portfolio, partially overlapping the Chamber's bilateral role.
• Business Sweden: Sweden's official trade and investment promotion agency. The Chamber has a core strategic alliance with Business Sweden (Country Manager Poland sits on the Chamber's board); Business Sweden offers broader, state-funded trade services that partially overlap with the Chamber's mandate, though it does not specialize in Sweden-Poland specifically.
