A rooftop. Real data. And a conversation on what it actually takes to raise in the U.S. 🇸🇪🤝🇺🇸

Last night, SACC Texas hosted Eric Engineer from S3 Ventures and Henrik Johansson for an evening on the state of U.S. venture and the Nordic opportunity within it.

Q1 2026 set a new record: $267B invested, 2x the prior peak. Texas is rising fast, #3 in the nation with $5.8B raised in just the first quarter. For Nordic founders, the message was clear: the appetite is there, but walking into a U.S. VC meeting ready is what separates those who close from those who don't.

Thank you to everyone who joined us at 215 Brazos Street in Austin. These are the conversations SACC Texas was built for.

🚨 Exciting news! This event has been renewed — and Eric will now be joined by Henrik Johansson on stage.

What started as a fireside with one of Texas's top VCs just leveled up. On Tuesday, June 2, the Swedish-American Chamber of Commerce Texas (SACC TX) is hosting Eric Engineer, General Partner at S3 Ventures, and Henrik Johansson for a conversation on the State of Venture in the U.S. and the Nordics — and what that means for founders making the transatlantic leap.

Why this matters now → U.S. venture activity is shifting fast. Knowing where capital is flowing — and where Nordic startups have a genuine edge — has rarely been more important for founders considering U.S. expansion. Texas has emerged as one of the most active ecosystems outside the coasts, and Eric is one of the people building it.

Expect a candid, high-signal discussion on where the money is moving, which sectors have the strongest crossover between Nordic strength and U.S. investor appetite, and what it actually takes to walk into a U.S. VC meeting ready.
If you're a Nordic founder, operator, investor, or executive building in the U.S. — this room is built for you.

🇸🇪 We are excited to welcome LEWA of Sweden as our newest SME Member!

LEWA makes functional pouches packed with caffeine, vitamins, and minerals no to***co, no ni****ne, no sugar. Think of it as your energy drink, reimagined.

And they are bringing that energy straight to Texas. LEWA is launching their products at Murphy USA and Casey's General Stores across the Dallas-Fort Worth area through Altria's U.S. distribution program, with Des Moines, Iowa also in the mix.

As one of the first companies in our new Business Services program, LEWA gets hands-on support from the SACC-Texas intern team as they build their U.S. presence. We love seeing Swedish innovation land right here in our backyard. 🤠🤝

🇸🇪 We are proud to welcome Nefab as our newest SME Member!

Nefab has been engineering sustainable industrial packaging solutions since 1949, and today they operate in more than 39 countries serving some of the world's most demanding industries.

Right here in Texas, Nefab Americas calls Coppell home, and in 2025 they opened a brand new Engineering Center in Austin to support the region's booming tech and manufacturing sector.

Three WorldStar 2025 Awards later, it's safe to say Nefab knows a thing or two about innovation. We're thrilled to have them in the SACC-Texas family and can't wait to see what we build together. 🤝
