Meet the international minds building careers, companies, and communities in Vestland

What happens when people with international experience, perspectives, and ambitions choose to build their lives, careers, and companies in Western Norway?

For this years First Tuesday summer party, we will meet individuals who have brought ideas, culture, expertise, and entrepreneurial drive from around the world, and found opportunities, networks, and new beginnings here on the West Coast. Some have founded companies. Others have built careers within Norwegian industry, research, and technology. What they all share is the ability to challenge perspectives, inspire others, and create value through diverse experiences and backgrounds.
