The Vice Chancellors Conference elects the board of Stockholms Akademiska Forum and the board initiates different working groups for particular areas. The working groups handle projects within the areas of interest for Stockholms Akademiska Forum which are to facilitate and increase inter-institutional collaboration and develop interaction between science, business industry and the public.
