🕗 Time: Breakfast from 08:00, seminar 08:30-09:30
📍 Location: Auditorium, Aker Tech House, 1st floor
Power, AI and security are increasingly part of the same conversation. Kristin Skogen Lund and Stian Jenssen discuss how Aker and its Nordic peers are responding to a more uncertain world, from Nordic Compass to AI infrastructure in Narvik.
Kristin is Vice-Chair of Nordic Compass, an alliance of around 30 Nordic companies and foundations launched this spring to strengthen the region’s competitiveness and resilience. Stian spent years at NATO, working closely with the Secretary General, before moving into industry. Today he leads Nscale Scandinavia, which is building large-scale AI data centers in Northern Norway.
Join us for breakfast and a conversation about why Nordic companies are organizing now, what it takes to build AI infrastructure in a region where power and security are closely linked, and what it all means for the next generation of industry leaders
