New Nordic network: Design and architecture as tools for the green transition

  • Bella Center, Hall E UIA23 Congress 5 Center Boulevard København, 2300 Denmark (map)

In this event you will get to know Nordic authorities within design and architecture, and how they work to promote sustainable development. The Norwegian Minister of Trade and Industry, Jan Christian Vestre, will also share his perspectives.

The event serves as the starting point for a new Nordic network. By joining forces across country borders, the goal is to increase the understanding of how design and architecture serve as tools for the green transition. 

The introduction by the Norwegian Minister of Trade and Industry will be followed by a presentation of Nordic authorities within design and architecture, and an open discussion about how this network can create greatest possible value in the Nordic region and beyond. Come and give us your much appreciated input!
