We have the pleasure of inviting you to the High North Dialogue Conferen ce, which takes place in Bodø, Norway, April 18–19, 2018.< /p>
The annual High North Dialogue conference gathers experts and stakeho lders from a wide range of sectors and has a strong focus on business devel opment and economic growth in the High North. The fact that the conference provides a platform to interact with young academics and professionals with an interest in the Arctic is one aspect that past participants have highli ghted as especially useful. The conference coincides with week-long Master and PhD courses that gather more than 120 graduate students from Norway, Ru ssia, China, and many other countries.
The theme of the conference in 2018 is Growth in the Arctic. We will explore topics such as High North sc enarios, maritime waste and the regional dimension of development. Business leaders and entrepreneurs will share their thoughts and know-how on how th e enormous business potential in the Arctic can be utilized. For the third consecutive year, we present the High North Hero Award to a person or an or ganization that has contributed to highlighting the importance of the High North. We invite everyone to nominate candidates.
We would also like to invite you to take part in our research workshop on Tuesday April 17, co nnecting scholars across academic fields to discuss various aspects of grow th in the Arctic.
