Pre-conference reception

Spaceport Norway 2026 takes place in Oslo on October 27–28, bringing together people from across the Norwegian and international space industry. This year’s conference, North Star Rising, looks at Norway’s growing role in space and brings industry, government, defence, research and investors together for two days of talks, discussions and meetings.

The evening before the conference, Spaceport Norway and Inventas are getting an early start. We’re opening the doors to our office at Factory Tøyen for an informal mingle with speakers, participants and others from the space community. The idea is simply to get to know each other a little better before the conference starts. There will be a few short talks along the way, but most of the evening is set aside for meeting people, catching up and having good conversations over drinks and light refreshments.

«Spaceport Norway is about bringing people together. The reception gives us an opportunity to connect across industry, research, government and investment communities, and to start conversations that can lead to new partnerships and opportunities for the Norwegian space sector.»

Ole Dokka
Executive Director, SpacePort Norway
