Explore opportunities in the North at Havblest 2025
To succeed with the offshore wind initiative in Norway, we must build industry across the entire country. At Havblest in Bodø February 12-13 , we will outline a strategy for how companies in Northern Norway can seize the industrial opportunities within offshore wind.
We are bringing together offshore wind stakeholders from all over the country for a day of professional discussions and networking. With Norway's ambitions in offshore wind, companies along the entire coast need to contribute. In Northern Norway, supplier companies and ports have particular advantages, and the potential to supply both Norwegian and international projects is significant.
Havblest is organized in collaboration with Offshore Norge, Energi i Nord and Westcon Helgeland. The program is continuously updated.
