The Swedish Chamber of Commerce Members’ Scholarship Fund was founded in 2020 to further promote and support the development of young and ambitious talent through the SCCs established scholarships programmes. The scholarship is offered to a Swedish student at bachelor or master’s level at university in Sweden or abroad for a unique opportunity and insight into Swedish-British business life by joining the SCC in London for a 12-months period.
The scholarship fund is made up of generous donations from the SCC community (large and small), and altogether making grants possible. The members’ scholarship fund invests with the aim of strengthening the bilateral ties between our two countries, at formative and important time of young professional’s careers.
To apply for the scholarship, you must be a Swedish national and have completed your bachelor's or master's degree at a university in Sweden or abroad, at the time of admission the same year.
The application period for 2021/2022 is closed. Applications for 2022/2023 scholarships will open in December 2021.
My year as a scholar at the Swedish Chamber of Commerce for the UK has been intense, exciting and very rewarding. I've been given a lot of freedom and responsibility to lead my own projects and implement my own ideas, but have also always felt supported by the Chamber team. I genuinely feel that I've grown both professionally and personally during my time at the Chamber, all while having a great deal of fun. I would recommend anyone interested in launching an international career to apply.
