Join us on 18.10.2022 to discover market opportunities in Norway! The country is building new hospitals and refurbishing older buildings with worth of billions of euros.

Sustainability is in focus with these hospital projects and, for instance, the new hospital in Hammerfest, Northern Norway, will be a green hospital built according to the passive house standards that decreases the energy use and costs related to heating of the building.

The webinar will start with Sykehusbygg's (Norwegian Hospital Construction Agency) presentation of the overall picture of the main hospital projects in the country. Rud Pedersen Public Affairs will continue with concrete examples on how to seize the opportunity and Granlund Oy will share their experiences on how they have used the Group Explorer funding received from Business Finland.
