Sten K Johnson Foundation wants to reach out to individuals, organizations and companies (with a link to Skåne) who have vision and drive to develop projects in education, culture, technology, medicine, entrepreneurship, literature and music.

In Sten K Johnson’s spirit, the Foundation shall support ”cross border” initiatives and innovative individuals who dare venture into untested landscape to develop new ways forward.

DEAR TO THINK DIFFERENTLY
A fundamental prerequisite for the development of both society, culture and business is that there are individuals who dare to think differently. By challenging old patterns and find alternative ways forward, their initiative opens new worlds that we never otherwise would have had access to.

Sten K Johnson Foundation honors and supports individuals who with courage and decisiveness dare to try different approaches in order to develop the discipline that the applicant acts within. The Foundation welcomes applications with the aim to give the new and untried a chance to get attention in a wider context.

BACKGROUND

In 2012, Sten K Johnson established a Foundation with the purpose of promoting research, development, education and culture in entrepreneurship, literature, music, medicine and technology.
The Foundation was donated 49 % of the shares in Sten K Johnson’s holding company. The Johnson family retains a long term and comfortable majority in the holding company and The Foundation will be given annual resources in terms of return on its shares.

Since 2013 the foundation has awarded 352 grants with a total of 43,5 miljon SEK.

This amount will be distributed directly or indirectly as grants, support, or otherwise used for foundation purposes. Future dividends to The Foundation depend on the holding company’s profits and the return on its shares.
