Over 700 employees are currently working in Stockholm, providing deep expertise and knowledge within railway, with focus on signalling and digital solutions.

From the Stockholm office, Alstom’s experts run development of signalling systems for rail and there is a development centre for signalling technology, with products for an international market.

Alstom’s new office demonstrates that it is possible to create fresh and modern working environments with simple sustainable means without compromising on quality.
