Gallagher has announced the introduction of a new team that’s poised to service the growing market in Sweden and the surrounding Nordic countries.
Synergies across the vertical alignment of Gallagher’s established business in the UK and the business opportunities for the company in Sweden ‘played a role’ in the company’s decision, with key focuses on critical national infrastructure, military, and complex environments as well as the country’s adoption of ‘cutting-edge’ cyber technology.
