Abstract

Gothenburg is located on Swedens west coast. The sea and an international orientation beckoned for this city, where it was harbour port and home to the Swedish East India Company during the 1700s. This book is part of a city initiative called Kunskap Gteborg 2021, in celebration of Gothenburgs 400-years jubilee that takes place in 2021. This book is a collection of narratives and insights of those who had helped build the international orientation of Gothenburg from the early 1980s, focusing specifically on Gothenburgs past, present and future ties with Asia, vice versa. The foundational research for this book in was made possible by a stipendium from the Foundation Anna Ahrenberg, Gothenburg, Sweden.

Target readership

This book is for scholars and practitioners interested to get first hand insight into interview data with key individuals who helped (re-)open trade relations between Sweden and China from the early 1980s. It also traces the foundational discourse that helped build international business relations between Sweden and China from the time of the Swedish East Indiaman trade during the 1700s. Historical documents from merchants and supercargoes of Swedens early Far East trade indicates that Sweden had a different perspective than most other European countries with regards to how it interacted with China in international business and culture sharing.

T he interior design to the office was light and airy with a distinct feature of an open floor plan. The Managing Director (MD), Marit, who was Swedish, sat in a modest sized room where besides designated appointment slots for private meetings, had her door always open. She wanted an open door policy at the Singapore subsidiary of the Swedish company of which she was MD, because she felt it important to remain accessible for help or the answering of questions for her colleagues. I sat across Marit, asking questions about her experiences with working in Asia, and listening to her responses. The Singapore headquarters for Asia-Pacific had its office located at the heart of the financial district of the city of Singapore. It was a corner room to a high floor in one of the many skyscrapers that so defined the city skyline that gave a spectacular view over Boat Quay and the Singapore River.
