Guide to local business networks
Business network in Helsingborg
and northwestern Skåne
Are you looking for a business network in Helsingborg? Here we go through some of the different types of business networks and business organizations that exist in the region, what sets them apart and what might be good to consider before you choose.
Different networks. Different values.
The best network is not the same for everyone.
Helsingborg has several established contexts for entrepreneurs and business leaders. Some are clearly focused on recommendations and new business, others on knowledge, local business issues, inspiration or long-term relationships.
Therefore, the most important question is rarely which business network is best. It's more about what you want to get out of the time you spend on it and what kind of people you want to meet on a regular basis.
What are you looking for?
Four common ways to network.
01
Business-driven networks
For those who want to work in a structured way with recommendations, introductions and new business opportunities. Here the meeting format is often clear and participation is regular.
02
Relationship-based networks
For those who want to meet the same people over time and let trust and business opportunities grow through recurring meetings and shared experiences.
03
Knowledge and inspiration network
For those who are primarily looking for new perspectives, lectures, exchange of experiences and a broad contact area with the business community in the region.
04
Local business organizations
For companies that also want to influence local business issues, follow developments in their area and build relationships with other businesses nearby.

Business networks and organizations to check out.

Before you choose
What do you really want to get out of a business network?
A membership is rarely better than the time you actually want to spend on it. So think less about how many names are on the membership list and more about what context you yourself will want to appear in again and again.
01
Do you want structure or freedom?
Some networks are built on fixed formats and clear expectations. Others leave more room for conversations and relationships to develop naturally.
02
Do you want to meet many people or get to know fewer people better?
Large events can provide broad reach. Recurring smaller contexts can instead make it easier to build trust over time.
03
Is the goal business, knowledge or both?
Different networks have different focuses. It's worth choosing a context where the structure itself matches what you want to get out of it.
04
Would you like to go there even without a quick deal?
This is perhaps the easiest control question. The relationships that become truly valuable usually take longer than a first meeting.
Vasatorp Business Club
The corporate network that isn't really
feels like a network.
Vasatorp Business Club is a business network in the Helsingborg area for entrepreneurs and business leaders who want to build long-term relationships in northwestern Skåne.
We meet about 25 times a year through breakfasts, company visits, dinners, golf and other activities. There are no requirements for presentation rounds, reported deals or recommendations. Instead, the idea is quite simple: when people get enough time together, they actually get to know each other.
Golf is part of Vasatorp, but it is not a requirement to be part of the network. About half of the matches do not have golf at all.
