Boliden
The current strategic collaboration agreement was written in 2020 to deepen cooperation and defines a framework for cooperation with associated sub-agreements for the activities decided upon.
The agreement aims to meet the rapidly changing world together with united forces and to strengthen the strategic cooperation in education, research, and innovation in the long term. The purpose of the collaboration is to increase the competitiveness and attractiveness of both Boliden and Luleå University of Technology. Together, Boliden and the University want to identify future areas of collaboration and develop goals, strategies and concrete action plans and joint activities within these.
The activities decided will lead to increased quality in skills development and lifelong learning, in research and in innovation, which in turn leads to sustainable growth and strengthened competitiveness for both parties.
Through collaboration, we will produce knowledge, ensure competence and quality and find solutions that benefit Boliden, Luleå University of Technology and, by extension, the region and society in which we operate.
The collaboration shall be characterised by sustainability with an equality and gender perspective to take advantage of the full potential of the people working in both parties' organisations.
