Invite a meeting – become a local host

Thousands of conferences rotate between different Swedish cities every year. For a meeting to come to Skellefteå, a local ambassador is needed – someone willing to say: “Come to Skellefteå!” That person could be you. Being a meeting ambassador means using your professional or personal network to help attract the next major meeting to Skellefteå – contributing to growth and bringing new expertise to the city.

Why become a local host?

By inviting a conference to Skellefteå, you strengthen both your own brand and that of your organisation, while also gaining the opportunity to influence the programme. You also help more people discover Skellefteå. A conference benefits the entire city: on average, each participant spends SEK 3,500 per day, generating revenue for hotels, restaurants and shops – and potentially leading to return visits or even relocation to Skellefteå.

Who can become a local host?

Anyone with commitment and a network can become an ambassador – whether you are active in an industry association, sports club or company, or simply passionate about a particular issue. What matters is the willingness to invite others to Skellefteå.

What does the role involve?

You focus on your area of expertise and use your network. We at Skellefteå Convention Bureau provide all the necessary materials and make the case for why Skellefteå is the right choice. Together, we can encourage more conferences to choose Skellefteå.
