The tech industry's contribution to Swedish exports

Sweden is an export-dependent country and our exports of goods and services amounted to a value equivalent to 44% of GDP in 2020.

The tech industry's contribution to Swedish exports has increased by almost 1,200 percent since 1998 and amounted to SEK 140 billion in 2020. This corresponds to over six percent of Sweden's total exports.

Traditional basic industries such as paper, pulp and paper waste, metals, and plastics and rubber accounted for just under five, four and two percent respectively of total exports in 2020.
