During the day several hundred students came to hear the Ambassador and other Embassy staff talk about current issues, studying and visiting the U.S.

The Ambassador also met with local businesses and American citizens. The day after, Ambassador made the keynote speech at the Swedish-American Bridge Conference. Speaking at the bridge conference were also Sweden's Ambassador to the U.S., Jonas Hafström and legendary hockey player Håkan Loob.
