Venture building and startup acceleration

We explore

We continuously explore new ideas and business models. Some start-ups apply to our incubators from outside of Scania. Many are home-grown, with ideas born and nurtured in the Scania Innovation Factory.

We build

We don’t just identify opportunities; we bring them to life. We have the team, the processes and the resources to support new ventures to thrive in the competitive landscape.

We manage

Building a new business is not easy. It demands clarity in vision and deep commitment. That is why we take pride in managing new companies that enhance Scania’s offering.
