This week, a team from Kongsberg Geospatial travelled from Ottawa, Canada, to Horten, Norway, to meet with Kongsberg Norcontrol. Since 2009, the two companies have combined their expertise to create advanced solutions for a variety of industries. This recent visit builds on that legacy, setting the stage for deeper collaboration in areas like port security, critical infrastructure protection, and drone-based situational awareness. Reflecting on the partnership, Kongsberg Geospatial President Jordan noted: “This collaboration allows us to combine our respective strengths and create truly value-added solutions. By working more closely with our colleagues at Kongsberg Norcontrol, we’re unlocking new opportunities that benefit both our companies and our customers.” Lene Vesterlund, CEO of Kongsberg Norcontrol, echoed this sentiment: "Collaboration makes us stronger. By combining our expertise and experience we’re reinforcing our relationship and driving innovation.” With Kongsberg Geospatial’s expertise in geospatial software and Kongsberg Norcontrol’s leadership in maritime awareness, their collaboration continues to open new doors in the situational awareness field. Together, they are building solutions that address the critical needs of today’s industries.

Yesterday, our President, Jordan Freed, had the honor of participating in a dynamic panel about the Canada & Norway Defence Cooperation. The event, organized by the Norwegian-American Defense & Homeland Security Industry Council (NADIC) in collaboration with the Royal Norwegian Embassy in Ottawa and the Canadian Global Affairs Institute, fostered discussions that underscored the importance of collaboration between Canada and Norway in enhancing North Atlantic security. Jordan joined esteemed panelists David Perry, Arne Skjaerpe, and Thomas Nygaard to explore Canada-Norway defence industrial opportunities, highlighting Kongsberg Geospatial's commitment to innovative solutions that support the region's shared security priorities. It was inspiring to engage alongside NADIC members Teledyne FLIR, Eelume AS, Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace, Nammo AS, and Acapulka, all contributing to the robust relationship between our nations. A heartfelt thank-you to NADIC and the event organizers for facilitating these critical discussions. #DefenceCooperation #NorthAtlanticSecurity #CanadaNorwayRelations #KongsbergGeospatial
