Tomra won the Export Award last year. The jury highlighted the company's ability to demonstrate how Norwegian innovation can have an international impact. SeaGems received the Newcomer of the Year award and was described as a role model for emerging export industries in Norway.

The Newcomer Award honours the export companies of the future. It recognises companies that, despite being relatively new, have already demonstrated their ability to succeed internationally through innovation, growth and exports.

The Export Conference is an annual event for Norwegian export-oriented businesses. It brings together Norwegian exporters and key stakeholders to discuss opportunities and strategic choices in a world shaped by geopolitical uncertainty, new market conditions and global change.

The conference is organised by Eksfin and Innovation Norway. As government agencies, we support the international competitiveness of Norwegian businesses in different ways.
