Texas is open for business.
So are we.
SACC Texas connects Swedish and American companies with the network, expertise, and institutional access they need to grow — in both directions across the Atlantic.
Our Services
Matchmaking

With active chapters in Austin, Dallas, and Houston, SACC Texas operates at the intersection of two of the world’s most dynamic business environments. Sweden brings a legacy of innovation, sustainability, and world-class engineering. Texas brings scale, ambition, and a business climate unlike any other in the United States.
Whether you are a Swedish company making your first move into the U.S. market, or an American business seeking trusted Swedish partnerships, SACC Texas has the network, the knowledge, and the institutional relationships to accelerate your journey.
Choose one service or engage with all three. We adapt to what your business needs most.
Business Referrals
Using our extensive member network — spanning energy, technology, healthcare, finance, manufacturing, and beyond — we arrange the introductions and meetings that open the right doors for your business.
Our Business Matchmaking program is tailored to your specific needs. Together with you, we define which contacts and companies are most relevant — then we make the introductions on your behalf.
– Define your target: With our team, you identify the connections most likely to create value for your business
– Find your partners: We map relevant SACC Texas member companies and qualified contacts
– Connect: We facilitate warm, purposeful introductions — not cold referrals

Government & Institutional Relations
Some doors require more than a good pitch to open. SACC Texas maintains direct working relationships with the institutions that shape the business environment on both sides of the Atlantic — and membership gives you access to those channels.
SACC Texas works in close cooperation with Sweden’s government-backed trade and investment infrastructure in the United States, giving our members a direct line to official Swedish channels.
– Swedish Consulate General in Houston
– Business Sweden — Sweden’s official trade and investment promotion agency
– Swedish Embassy in Washington D.C.
– Team Sweden — the full range of Swedish governmental actors present in the U.S. market
Understanding and accessing Texas state-level programs, incentives, and official channels is difficult from the outside. SACC Texas’s relationships with Texas institutions help members navigate this landscape.
– Connections to Texas economic development bodies and state institutions
– Awareness of state-level programs, incentives, and investment opportunities
– Liaison support for official engagement with Texas government actors
For companies operating in both Sweden and Texas, SACC Texas can facilitate access to relevant governmental contacts in both countries — reducing the time and uncertainty of navigating unfamiliar institutional terrain.
– Coordinated access to Swedish and American governmental channels
– Support in understanding policy environments affecting cross-border business
– Introductions to relevant diplomatic and trade representatives
