Norway’s life science industry has immense potential to take a leading role on the global arena. This opening keynote session will discuss a roadmap to strengthen Norway’s life science ecosystem through concrete actions and strategic priorities. It will explore how the combined efforts of government, public institutions, companies, and investors could define and realize Norway’s ambition to become a leader in life sciences. We will also explore how we can spearhead the promotion of greater Nordic collaboration (by sharing expertise, resources, and strategic initiatives) to create a unified and competitive regional life science hub.
- Establishing a vision for Norway’s role in the global life science industry, leveraging its strengths while addressing critical gaps
- Identifying areas where Norway excels and focusing efforts on closing gaps in research, innovation, and commercialization to remain competitive internationally
- Discussing how the Nordic countries can capitalize on their collective strengths in research, innovation, and regulatory frameworks to create a globally competitive life science ecosystem
- How can we overcome the challenges and opportunities in fostering seamless cross-border collaboration? (including regulatory harmonization, data sharing, and talent mobility)
