”Physical activity actually makes you smarter, gives you better memory, makes you less stressed, and increases your ability to stay focused.” - , renowned psychiatrist and author.

Today, we had the pleasure of hosting Anders Hansen before an audience of over 200 community members, including representatives from academia, industry, and the public sector. Hansen highlighted the fascinating intersection of our ancient brains and modern society.

Key insights:

1. Brain Health:
The hippocampus shrinks 1% per year, but physical activity can prevent this shrinkage and improve memory.

2. Depression and Exercise:
Regular exercise sharpens cognitive function, and protects against mental decline. To see significant effects, engage in high-intensity activities three times a week for at least 25 minutes. Results typically appear after about 5 weeks.

3. Stress and Focus:
Physical activity helps manage stress and improves focus. Hansen discussed how our ancient brains are wired for survival, and how physical activity helps manage stress and enhances concentration.

4. Gamers and Exercise:
A study on League of Legends gamers found that those who exercised for 15 minutes between sessions performed better than those who rested.

With the right support and confidence, no obstacle is too large to stop us from reaching our goals. Yesterday, three inspiring women, Kristin Hedlund, Laila Karam, and Mahsa Nordqvist unfolded their inspiring life stories during Women’s Empowerment Week. Their experiences, setbacks, and triumphs reminded us that a progressive career is based on different life journey’s, each story a unique adventure, full of twists and turns.
 
Their advice for women in business:
- Be kind; connect with those around you—your greatest asset might be the relationships you build.

- Share generously; your knowledge and network can be a powerful tool to involve new people. Invite others along the way and learn from each other.

- Own your path; lead with confidence and create a way forward aligned with your passions and dreams.

Despite research confirming the positive correlation between gender-equal boards and increased profitability, the current representation of women on boards in Western Sweden stands at only 20 percent. By actively promoting gender equality within boards, we enhance conditions for higher profitability and innovation within companies. The Board List Styrelselistan, at Västsvenska Handelskammaren is one initiative dedicated to create positive change.

Today, Stina Jernhed and Annica Berg shared their advice on board work at Women’s Empowerment Week to inspire more people to get involved.

New milestone for world-class Swedish life science cluster.

In May 2023, Sweden’s innovation agency Vinnova decided to invest 160 million SEK in the innovation platform at GoCo Health Innovation City to give Sweden a world-leading role in life science, located in Mölndal outside Gothenburg.

Just eight months later, construction is now starting on GoCo Active Lab where research into new drugs and therapies will be combined with a unique approach to accelerate development in preventive healthcare. This is celebrated with an event on January 25th together with the most interesting actors in health.
