The Energy Transition is happening, but greater effort is required to accelerate progress. The UK and Norway have been close partners for many decades, particularly in driving the energy sector forward, and Energetic Future 2024 seeks to enhance that partnership. 


This two-day event offers organisations and individuals an opportunity to hear about the progress already made as well as ongoing challenges, also providing plenty of time for interacting and sharing new innovations, capabilities, and solutions.   


Join us at St James’ Park in Newcastle for two days of business development and networking. You’ll meet representatives from regional and local government, policymakers and politicians, as well as energy companies and suppliers from both Norway and the UK, investor companies, British and Norwegian clusters, industry bodies/organisations, academia, accelerators, and incubators. 


In addition to a wealth of B2B networking opportunities, this event also offers insightful site visits and a dynamic roundtable discussion, as well as our main conference, which will present innovative ideas while showcasing successful collaboration projects.
