How can companies successfully commercialize innovations to reap benefits in emerging industries? What are the obstacles to scaling and what are the opportunities? Growth and long-term success depend on answering these questions, particularly in emerging industries. 

Centre for Ocean Business has a pleasure to host Ocean Business Talks where our panel of experts will address these and other questions pertaining to innovation and commercialization in ocean business industries, particularly at the startup and scaleup stages. Some of the key points relate to:

  • opportunities and challenges in emerging technologies and industries
  • access to resources at different stages in the process, e.g., financing, knowledge, capabilities, etc.
  • Norwegian context and opportunities and challenges in international expansion.

Light refreshments will be served.
