Background
Senior columnist Per T Ohlsson wrote in his chronicle in Sydsvenskan the 8: Th of October 2006:
...Malmö may have to stand back. If the new government really wants to draw attention to how immigration has made Sweden richer, freer and more open, then there is just one adequate place. A small town to which all these roads lead. A few miles from the bridge. In the centre of Skåne. Just in front of the extreme nationalists. As time goes on even West 116th street will hear the rumour about — for example
The Herbert Felix Institutet, Eslöv, Sweden

He came as an immigrant from former Czechoslovakia to Sweden with his special recipe for pickled cucumber and he created one of Sweden´s biggest and most important grocery industries and a brand that put Eslov on the map. Herbert Felix is a signification of the successful entrepreneur.
The impact of globalization on society is significant. Trade between countries is increasing rapidly and influences from the outside world are many. In a multicultural society, there are skills that should be encouraged to develop new products and services aimed at new groups within the country but also export goods to the rest of the world
Herbert Felix Institute would like to take advantage of these developments force through a national institute of globalization and entrepreneurship orientation.
