In Oslo, the program on the 24th of November was a French-Norwegian Maritime Seminar that took place at BI Norwegian Business School. From the Norwegian part, we had the chance to have speakers from DNV, Equinor, Grieg Maritime and Kongsberg Maritime. The morning was dedicated to presentations from the Norwegian and French participants, while the afternoon to B2B meetings, before heading to the airport, direction Ålesund! 

 

In Ålesund, on the 25th of November, the French delegation was welcomed by the Blue Maritime Cluster in their premises. First, we had the privilege to experience the most advanced Offshore Simulator in Europe, before continuing with presentations from the French companies and some Norwegian counterparts, members of the Cluster. We had the honour of having the presence of H.E Pierre-Mathieu Duhamel, the Ambassador of France to Norway, who made a speech about the French-Norwegian bilateral cooperation opportunities on the maritime sector. The afternoon was dedicated to B2B speed-meetings. 

 

The following day, the Business study trip continued with an interesting visit of the ULSTEIN Shipyard, presentations from other members of the Cluster and again B2B speed-meetings, before heading back to the airport.
