Recruitment of labor is a key issue for companies, authorities and organizations in the region.
We work to ensure that the members increase their conditions to attract, recruit and retain the skills they need for their operations. We do this by offering, among other things, relocation services, co-moving services, move-in networks, HR meetings and recruitment fairs. Samarkand also runs a university center with around 300 enrolled students.

Furthermore, Samarkand arranges Mentoring program and Career coaching

In order to get more different kinds of workplaces in the region, we need to broaden the labor market. Business development processes and development of social enterprises.

One of Samarkand’s missions is to work with a broadening of the labor market to reduce vulnerability, create greater opportunities for fellow movers to find jobs and that this will   contribute to growth in the region. This work takes place in collaboration with the business units and Väsman Invest.  Innovation development and meeting with innovators also often take place within HVV.
It is long processes to get companies to move their operations, such discussions are held but have long process times. We would need to find activities within, among other things, programming – software development, an administrative center and preferably some activity with a chemical-technical focus. High Voltage Valley has started “The Innovation Workshop“As a way to increase focus on innovation development and how we can help innovators to the market.

On an ongoing basis, we conduct targeted start-up training for our fellow movers, these courses are given in both Swedish and English.
