Our partners at the Innovation Arena

This will be a day where innovation and climate-smart solutions for roads, bridges, paths and tunnels are brought into the system and where companies, builders, contractors, consulting engineers and road managers come together under one roof.

Here, innovative companies get the opportunity to present an idea or product to a panel of experts, in addition, it will be possible to have 1:1 meetings with the State Road Administration, New Roads and County municipalities.

Over the course of one day, the Innovation Arena runs parallel sets of exhibitors, panel presentations and 1:1 meetings, in addition to presentations from the stage. The subject panels are composed of builders, experienced engineers and contractors. Companies are given the opportunity to present their idea to the panel, before there are questions and immediate feedback

This is a great opportunity to show good solutions, get feedback from authorities and the market and learn something new.

The Innovation Arena takes place at Clarion Hotel & Congress Gardermoen.
