A New Platform for Ocean Leadership
In 2026, Nor-Shipping and TradeWinds joined forces to launch Oslo Ocean Days, a high-level leadership forum for the ocean industries. The inaugural event took place in Oslo city centre on 8–10 September 2026, bringing together industry leaders, investors and policymakers from across the ocean space.
Oslo Ocean Days provides a platform for insight, dialogue and networking around the fast-moving topics shaping the ocean industries. Through agenda-setting discussions and opportunities to connect with peers, the forum brings together perspectives from across industries, markets and the wider ocean ecosystem.
Designed to complement Nor-Shipping and broaden the conversation across the ocean industries, Oslo Ocean Days combines a leadership forum, partner platform and networking arena. Held every two years in Oslo, one of the world’s leading maritime cities, it provides a meeting place for the people and ideas shaping the future of the ocean industries.
The 2026 Edition
Hosted across selected venues in Oslo city centre, the programme will combine a curated conference agenda with networking events, a regatta and a gala dinner at the Oslo Opera House.
The 2026 edition will place a particular emphasis on maritime and shipping topics, reflecting the current developments shaping the sector. Final programme details, venues and website will be announced in due course.

Bringing the industry together to navigate a new ocean business reality

Right here, right now: DNV onboard to help shape industry future at Oslo Ocean Days
In respect of H.M. King Harald V.
We recognise the significance of His Majesty King Harald V’s funeral for Norway and the Royal Family. Our thoughts are with the Royal Family, the Royal Household and the people of Norway at this difficult time.
The funeral of His Majesty King Harald V has been scheduled for the same day as the main conference. We aim to conduct the conference with the appropriate respect and sensitivity, and have therefore made some adjustments to the programme. A live broadcast of the funeral proceedings will be available at the venue, with time for attendees and speakers to pay their respects. The national minute of silence will also be appropriately observed.
Please see the updated programme.
