Together at Nordic Life Science Days

1400 participants from 30 countries gathered in Malmö, Sweden for this year’s Nordic Life Science Days, 18-19 September. The Norwegian ecosystem shared a pavilion at the conference.

The two-day conference is the largest Nordic partnering conference dedicated to the life science industry and is organised annually. It started in 2013 to create a unique place to do business, and Oslo Cancer Cluster has been a partner and supporter of the conference since the beginning. For several years, Oslo Cancer Cluster has organised a common pavilion with the other Norwegian stakeholders to promote Norwegian life science companies in the Nordics.

“Oslo Cancer Cluster helps to assure a Norwegian presence at Nordic Life Science Days each year. By working together with fellow clusters, public and private partners, with support from The Norwegian Embassies in Denmark and Sweden, and Innovation Norway, the collective effort provides valuable access to wider networks, expertise, and opportunities for companies to innovate. It also strengthens Norwegian interests across the Nordics and helps each of us make a positive impact. Together, we can make a difference”, said Charlotte Wu Homme, Head of Membership and Events at Oslo Cancer Cluster.

A kick-start to the conference was held the day prior at the Residence of the Norwegian Ambassador in Copenhagen. Oslo Cancer Cluster was honoured that Ambassador Katja Nordgaard hosted the event and spoke on the importance of cooperation and innovation. Photo: Innovation Norway in Denmark
