How does Helsingborg stad decide which projects should be granted by the Visionsfonden? The application process is described below.

Your application goes through three different committees before a decision is made. Every committee reads through all applications and create a preliminary decision.

• The first committee, includes Visionsfonden’s ideacoach and the closest colleagues who work with idea development, innovation, communication and digitalization.
• Thereafter the application goes to the second committee, which includes representatives from all of the city departments.
• The final and third committee consist of the city’s department directors and the head of future who makes the final selection of projects. The president of this comittee is the Director of Helsingborg, Palle Lundberg.

When we choose to grant projects, the committees evaluates the criterias and the basic requirements of Visionsfonden, but also discuss the potential societal benefits of the project. The committees review if the project is something new for Helsingborg and whether the project leads to new collaborations between individuals and collective in or outside Helsingborg.

You will be contacted if we think that your application is incomplete or if we have additional questions.
