Norway Life Science is the largest and most important meeting place for health and life sciences in Norway. Here we bring together the most important players to discuss how Norway can develop a strong and competitive health and life sciences industry based on excellent research.
Oslo Science City is Norway's most knowledge-intensive area. Within four gravitational fields of excellence, we have internationally leading knowledge environments dedicated to developing new solutions for important societal challenges and laying the groundwork for the sustainable jobs of the future, in collaboration with the business community and the public sector.
Two thirds of all health research in Norway is carried out in Oslo Science City. Here, ground-breaking new knowledge is built and further developed into new products, treatments and services that benefit patients and contribute to the rapidly growing Norwegian healthcare industry.
Some of Europe's top research teams specializing in digitalization, machine learning, and artificial intelligence are located in Oslo Science City. Here, both basic and applied research are conducted, enabling the business and public sectors to develop innovative digital solutions and services.
A sustainable society must also ensure social sustainability. In Oslo Science City, several leading research teams are dedicated to exploring interdisciplinary ways to foster a robust and inclusive democracy while preventing social exclusion.
Among the members of Oslo Science City, there are more than two thousand researchers working on climate, energy, and the environment. They contribute to understanding and preventing climate and environmental changes and to developing new and better solutions for producing, storing, and distributing clean energy.
The majority of technology- and knowledge-driven startups in Oslo are located in Oslo Science City. Here, they can collaborate with premier research and innovation ecosystems, and several incubators provide them with the facilities, networking opportunities, and services required for their growth.
