EEA and Norway Grants: Business Cooperation and the European Green Deal
Organised by Innovation Norway, as part of the EEA and Norway Grants, the event aimed to create new business opportunities within the framework of the European Green Deal. The event was a collaborative effort with long-time partners from Bulgaria, Croatia, Estonia, Greece, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, and Slovakia. These countries work together in 10 programmes that support business development, innovation, and SMEs through the EEA and Norway Grants.
The EEA and Norway Grants represent contributions from Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein to reduce disparities and strengthen cooperation in Europe. Overall, these grants provide 340 million euros to 10 countries, supporting projects that enhance competitiveness and value creation through business programmes, including projects that drive the green transition. All programmes encourage partnerships with entities in Norway, Iceland, or Liechtenstein.
The event also aimed to present the EEA and Norway Grants, prepare the ground for the future and connect partners for cooperation on sustainable solutions, beyond the ongoing funding-period of the Grants. The current funding period of the EEA and Norway Grants is coming to an end, and the event aimed to create potential partnerships for the upcoming period!
Spanning two days, the event featured five main sessions, starting with a plenary session followed by four thematic sessions on:
- Hydrogen for Greening Transportation
- Raw Materials for Net-Zero Targets
- Digitalisation of the Sustainable Blue Economy
- The Role of Carbon Capture and Storage
