Navigating Business through Global Pandemics, Energy Shocks and Geopolitical Inflection
Norwegian Risk Forum constitutes NRCI’s annual geopolitical conference in Oslo since 2010. Norwegian Risk Forum 2020 was an exclusive and international high-quality event where decision makers and business leaders experienced focused, useful and highly informative presentations and engaging panel debates in a live global videoconference. Norwegian Risk Forum 2020 held entirely in English fostered a deeper understanding among leaders from industry, finance, logistics, insurance, retail, real estate, maritime industry and energy companies and other sectors. During Norwegian Risk Forum 2020 participants gain deep insight and understanding into how geopolitical dynamics and political risks impact international business opportunities around the world. In addition Norwegian Risk Forum 2021 examines industrial strategies, infrastructure developments, economic corridors and logistics dynamics. Norwegian Risk Forum 2021 is most useful for companies, organizations, NGOs and investors planning to establish operations or already operating worldwide.
Norwegian Risk Forum 2021 examined the theme – “Managing Business Through Geopolitical Risks, Business Fluctuations & Energy Transition.” We welcomed speakers from across Asia, the Middle East, Europe and Africa. NRF 202o examined geopolitical and security risks, and business opportunities and industrial strategies in Asia, the Middle East and Africa. In addition we examined current dynamics in Russian – European relations. This year we also examine renewable energy strategies in China, Japan and South Korea. The Corona pandemic remains a challenge in various regions, however we also observe a range of countries working strategically to develop infrastructure and economic corridors across Asia and Africa. This is the 12th annual Norwegian Risk Forum and we look forward to welcome speakers and participants from around the world.
The meetings are held under the Chatham House Rule, which states that participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the speaker(s) nor of any other participant may be revealed. Participants share reflections, gather insights and obtain analysis useful to develop existing or new business strategies. Due to the Coronavirus / Covid-19 pandemic NRCI hosts Norwegian Risk Forum 2021 via Cisco Webex – a secure video conference platform. We do not reveal information from Norwegian Risk Forum after the conference. This is an exclusive high-level conference only for registered and confirmed participants.

NRCI forms the annual Norwegian Risk Forum themes and programs through a careful examination of global geopolitical dynamics, business and infrastructure trends driving economic growth, new industry and business sector reforms, and emerging international agreements and peace agreements enabling international investments across Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Latin America. NRCI monitors international economic drivers and trends, and geopolitical dynamics impacting and changing risk equations in countries, regions and globally. These observations form how we define and form Norwegian Risk Forum themes and programs every year. NRCI is experienced in managing events and this is the 12th annual Norwegian Risk Forum we host this year. During Norwegian Risk Forum you experience an international geopolitical and strategic event with high-quality speakers with presentations and panel-debates that are highly useful, interesting and relevant for international investments, business operations, NGO operations and for financial firms operating or managing investments internationally.
We received high appraisals and strong feedback from participants who attended Norwegian Risk Forum over the last 12 years since we hosted the first conference in 2010. We welcomed participants from leading positions from a range of industries and sectors from the corporate world, financial firms, international companies, NGOs, investor groups and public entities. Some participants informed us that they changed their international business strategies after attending Norwegian Risk Forum, and others ventured into new global expansion plans after receiving new and highly informative insights during Norwegian Risk Forums.
Norwegian Risk Forum is a most useful, informative and interesting geopolitical event for business leaders, leaders of organizations or risk departments, financial firms and international banks, and other global organizations planning international expansion or who need to monitor global geopolitical and strategic developments. Norwegian Risk Forum is now a world-leading annual geopolitical event and became a tradition for those who attended. Participants return year after year, and we value service very highly and follow up all participants closely. We welcome you to Norwegian Risk Forum 2021 on October 21.
