Through the Smart Built Environment programme, Formas, Vinnova, and the Swedish Energy Agency are funding projects that use digital transformation and/or industrial processes to contribute to more sustainable spatial planning. The call is to contribute to the sustainable development of our built environment through projects that use digitalisation as a central component and as a tool for improved sustainability in spatial planning in terms of processes, their results, and the built environment. Applications may address processes, forms of collaboration, business models, and technology. The purpose of the call is to increase the pace of the digital transformation via activities involving stakeholders from throughout the value chain, from planning to long-term administration of the spatial planning.
