Join the discussion on how we build our cities of tomorrow!

Nordic Innovation welcomes urban developers from the Nordic region and beyond to the half-day conference When Smart Meets Human, where we will be unwrapping the Nordic model and its role in building the cities of tomorrow.

We will discuss how the Nordic region can contribute to more sustainable, smart and liveable cities in the world – at the same time boosting our own competitiveness and export. The event is free and will offer plenty of opportunity for networking. So join us in Stavanger for engaging discussions on how we build our cities of tomorrow!

When Smart Meets Human is a side event of Nordic Edge Expo – the largest smart city event in the Nordic region.
