From 4–7 November, NME hosted a Team Norway pavilion at Europort in Rotterdam, with participation from 10 Norwegian companies—an increase from 2023.
After the official opening of Europort, representatives from the Norwegian Embassy in the Netherlands visited our pavilion and met with all the exhibitors to learn more about their businesses. In the evening the same day, Team Norway was invited to a networking dinner at the Norwegian Seamen’s Church in Rotterdam, hosted by the Royal Norwegian Embassy in the Netherlands. Here we had the opportunity to connect with industry professionals from the Netherlands, representatives from the Cities of Rotterdam and Oslo, as well as friends from the Norwegian pavilion.
At this Europort edition, we collaborated once again with the Pavilion of Denmark offering a joint lounge area serving daily lunch and beverages to the exhibitors. This is a 4-day exhibition, and it turned out to be well visited, especially on the second and third day. The Norwegian and Danish Networking Reception on Thursday afternoon was well attended, providing a relaxed space for networking and conversation across both company and country borders.
We would like to extend our gratitude to the Embassy for excellent cooperation and support. We would also like to send a big thank you to all participating companies, partners and visitors who stopped by the Team Norway pavilion, and to Danish Export Marine for great collaboration throughout the week.
We look forward to returning to Europort in 2027!
