About us

A meeting place for knowledge, collaboration & development

Together, we create a vibrant business community and a sustainable future for the Gothenburg archipelago.

Kompetenshuset is the place where entrepreneurs, educational partners and community actors come together to build a stronger region. With the sea as our closest neighbour, close collaboration and a clear focus on social sustainability, we create opportunities for both today’s and tomorrow’s talents. This is where the future takes shape — through education, networks and meaningful connections.

IN THE HEART OF THE ARCHIPELAGO

A place where the sea, proximity and accessibility create unique opportunities for businesses and visitors.

Kompetenshuset is located on the scenic Skärhamnsberget on Öckerö, with the sea as its closest neighbour. Its strategic location makes it easy to reach, while the proximity to Gothenburg opens doors for both local and regional collaborations. To further increase accessibility, we also have our own jetty in Öckerö harbour – perfect for visitors, partners and companies within the marine sector.

COLLABORATION THAT BUILDS STRENGTH

Here, businesses grow through community, shared expertise and a sustainable approach to developing the local economy.

The organisations within Kompetenshuset share a clear belief: collaboration creates success. We believe in socially responsible and sustainable entrepreneurship where we jointly take responsibility for the development of both the business community and society. By supporting each other, we build stronger companies, better business opportunities and an attractive place to work and grow.

SOCIAL SUSTAINABILITY THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE

We open doors to working life and strengthen the local community through education, inclusion and engagement.

Social sustainability is a central part of our mission. We aim to increase employment in the Gothenburg archipelago and create pathways for people to enter the labour market. That’s why we work closely with schools and educational partners to meet future talents early. We also invite local associations and the church to use our facilities free of charge — important actors for the children and youth in our community.

EDUCATION THAT SHAPES THE FUTURE

We strengthen the region’s competence and give young people and businesses the right conditions to grow.

Kompetenshuset works long‑term to develop the competence supply in the Gothenburg archipelago. In our facilities, we offer education and professional development that strengthen both the local business community and access to the labour market. We aim to give young people the best possible start while creating a business climate where companies can recruit, develop and grow — today and in the future.

THE ARCHIPELAGO'S MEETING PLACE FOR ENTREPRENEURS

This is where new collaborations, business relationships and professional networks that make a difference are created.

Through our hosts and owners, we offer financial guidance, professional development and a strong professional network. Kompetenshuset is a natural meeting place for entrepreneurs in the Gothenburg archipelago — a place where ideas are shared, relationships are built and new opportunities emerge.
