Special focus areas include bio-based materials, forest and ecosystem management, forest technology and plant- and forest production. Moreover, the collaboration will act to strengthen competence development of staff members at Stora Enso and SLU.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCollaborating with leading educational institutions, such as SLU, is a key component of Stora Enso\u2019s strategy and an enabler in our continued transformation into a renewable materials company,\u201d says Stora Enso\u2019s CEO Karl-Henrik Sundstr\u00f6m. \u201cOur vision is to replace fossil-based materials by innovating and developing new products based on wooden materials. By liaising with the world\u2019s leading forestry science university, we can accelerate this development while also increasing our exposure to educated talents in our field.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to partner with one of the world\u2019s leading forest products companies,\u201d says Peter H\u00f6gberg, Vice-Chancellor at SLU. \u201cStora Enso\u2019s ambition to be an influential force in the bio-economy matches SLU\u2019s strive to break new ground in research and education for bio-based technologies. Through this agreement, we can together strengthen the link between academics and business towards the common goal of a renewable future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Under the agreement Stora Enso and SLU aim to have an active portfolio of shared projects.
