The national definition of KKN is taken from Tillv\u00e4xtverket and the analysis report Kreametern that was produced a few years ago on behalf of the government.\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

In this definition, nine industry groups are described, some of which have additional industry categories underneath them. eXpression Ume\u00e5 is based on this division when we define our focus areas, but in some projects and collaborations we may target additional industries.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
