The American-Swedish News Exchange was established by the Sweden-America Foundation in Stockholm in 1921 and the agency opened its office in New York City in 1922. ASNE's main purpose was to increase and broaden the general knowledge about Sweden and to provide the American press with news on cultural, economic and political developments in Sweden.

​

The Swedish Tourist Association Svenska Turistföreningen (STF) was founded in Uppsala in 1885 by a group of geology students with an interest in outdoor activities. Right from the start, the goal was to promote tourism and make Sweden more accessible for everyone. The association initially targeted its activities on the Swedish mountain world, but the field of operation rapidly spread to the rest of the country.
