RIT is a collaborative EU funded project with the objective to create sustainable growth in the region of Norrbotten and enhancing its role as Sweden’s leading space region. This will happen by activities that increase the space sectors’ capacity within research and innovation collaboration between the academic sector, the business sector and actors within the innovation support system.

The RIT project started on September 1st 2015 and will last for three years. During this time the project will work on building up a productive and attractive innovation environment that attracts skills, investors and companies to the region.
