Expo is a Swedish anti-racist magazine started in 1995 by Stieg Larsson. It is issued by the non-profit Expo Foundation (Stiftelsen Expo). The magazine, issued four times a year, contains investigative journalism focused on nationalist, racist, anti-democratic, antisemitic, and far-right movements and organisations. It also publishes articles and podcasts on the Internet on a more regular basis. The people responsible for Expo make no connections with specific organisations or political parties, but work together with individuals and organisations that share Expos platform. The chairman of the Expo Foundation is Charles Westin. The magazine is headquartered in Stockholm. Larsson's political and journalistic background in far-left political activism including in Kommunistiska Arbetareförbundet (Communist Workers' League), and Internationalen, led him to found the Expo Foundation, similar to the British Searchlight Foundation, with the aim of "studying and mapping anti-democratic, right-wing extremist and racist tendencies in society". In 1999, Expo was restarted as a part of the magazine Svartvitt. When Svartvitt shut down in 2003, Expo returned to publication as an independent magazine.

The foundation's chairman of the board since 2023 is Anne Ramberg. The editor-in-chief of Expo is Anna Fröjd (since 2019), while Daniel Poohl is CEO and publisher (ansvarig utgivare).
