On the 29th of April we participated in the Inner Development Goals Summit in Stockholm. The Inner Development Goals are the tools we need to reach the UN’s seventeen Sustainable Development Goals, and secure a just, prosperous and sustainable future for humanity. The IDG framework consists of five categories organising 23 skills and qualities of human inner growth and development. This sure was an amazing summit and the knowledge gained will support not only our work, but the work of our clients and friends, going forward. Thank you, from the bottom of our big South-heart!

Last week we attended Nordbygg, the Nordic region’s largest and most dynamic meeting place for the construction and real estate industry. With a crowd of skilled and motivated companies from Latvia we gathered at Nordbygg at the Magnetic Latvia stand and took advantage of all the opportunities for knowledge exchange, discussions and to enhance new exciting cooperations. We also gave our point of view on the Swedish market, its people and how it is to do business in our country. We are thrilled about the energy that came out from this meeting!

We just launched the new Brand Platform and website of Falvir AB; a venture capital company making cross-industry investments. It has been an exciting journey to capture their essence and heartfelt passion they have for investing in people and their dreams. So excited to launch and create new possibilities to support even more dreams to come true!

We hereby present to you an Easter egg out of the ordinary. An Easter egg that makes us extremely proud and hopeful; a collaboration between us and the Raoul Wallenberg Institute. We are thrilled and honoured to assist them in their vision to bring about human rights change for all!

Do not despair too much. There is still light in these times after all. Such as the light from PROTON Lighting. We are honoured to announce that we go all in with a cooperation with this great hard core Swedish company origin from the cradle of the Swedish industry Gnosö – Värnamo, Småland. Let there be light…

We know things can be, seem and feel a little grim these days. This is why we find it extremely important to highlight and enhance the good stuff that will help us to stay positive during challenging times. Operation Smile for example. That’s good stuff. For each BIO...

“Guess who just got back today? Them wild-eyed [primates] that’d been away… SOUTH is back in town..” Well, we were never gone BUT today is the day where most of the pandemic restrictions will be removed and our pack of loving, pragmatic and esteemed primates are reuniting at the office. “Spread the word around. Guess who’s back in town. Just spread the word around…”

We are proud to announce that we are one of the sponsors of Lasse Twetman and his boats ‘Explorer’, ‘Strandskatan på Limhamn’ and ‘Absolut’. Lasse was the Operations Manager at Friskis&Svettis for 38 years and now he is passionate about restoring old fishing boats. Through this project he is raising money to fight cancer. Show your support with us! Cancerfonden Swish: 901 95 14

SOUTH takes a stand again. This time by taking part in the Malmö International Forum on Holocaust Remembrance and Combating Antisemitism together with the Latvian president Mr. Egils Levits. It was an honour to participate at the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law at Lund University and commit even further to creating a society shaped by human rights. We are also excited about how we can deepen the relationship even further with the Raoul Wallenberg Institute. Photo: Ilmārs Znotiņš, Valsts prezidenta kanceleja

We are excited to announce our Svenska Designpriset nomination in the Beverages Identity Packaging category. Our contribution is the packaging design experience of the La Progresiva 13 by Vigia gift box. Have a look at our design, and vote if you like what you see! We would like to send our deepest gratitude to The Island Rum Company for an amazing collaboration and the Bodega Vigia’s women rum maestros for their craftsmanship of Cuba’s finest aged rum stocks. Together we sparked a worldwide sipping revolution!

Never before have injustices against children around the world become so apparent as during the pandemic. Restrictions and limited freedom have isolated and harmed the most important people on this planet. Therefore, we are supporting Friskis when they join forces with Världens Barn. Because it’s time we all make a stand for those who need it the most!
