French-Norwegian Defence Industries Forum

The first French-Norwegian Defence Industries Forum marks a major milestone since the French-Norwegian Chamber of Commerce launched the France-Norway Defence Industries Committee last year, with one clear ambition: to create more opportunities for concrete industrial cooperation between our two countries.

Organised with Innovation Norway, Bpifrance, the French Embassy in Norway and the Norwegian Embassy in France, the forum brought together institutions, large groups, SMEs and start-ups around the key priorities of French-Norwegian defence cooperation, from resilient supply chains to High North surveillance and subsea and naval defence. A signing ceremony between the Ambassadors of Norway and France also marked the day.

Interest was so strong that registrations had to be closed early for this first edition.

The event was made possible by the support of its sponsors: Thales, Kongsberg, MBDA, Look Up, Deloitte and Sopra Steria.
