Building new value chains

Wilhelmsen is actively investing and building up various projects and companies in new green values chains, such as offshore wind, hydrogen, seabed minerals and autonomy.

At our Ocean Innovation Lab, Espen will highlight some of these ventures including Reach Subsea, Edda Wind and Loke Marine Minerals.

– We aim to demonstrate that we can succeed with Norwegian expertise and technology, and showcase how it can penetrate the global market through our international network, explains Espen Gjerde.

A great match with our cluster strategy

– The strategy of diversification and innovation, coupled with an emphasis on developing Norwegian expertise for export, aligns perfectly with our cluster strategy, says Jon Hellevang R&D Manager in GCE Ocean Technology.

His presentation will serve as an excellent introduction to the following discussion and group work, where we aim to establish the basis for 10 new joint innovation projects.

Additionally, we are excited to hear from prominent speakers from Equinor, DNB, OneSubsea and Mainstream Renewable Power which will provide us with their insights during our Ocean Innovation Lab.
