More than 80 people gathered in Tønsberg for Maritime heritage- Future power, and you could feel it right away.🤩
That was exactly what we set out to create. Bringing together people, perspectives and experience from across the maritime industry takes work, and it has been a real team effort to shape the programme, bring in speakers and create a setting worth showing up for.
A big thank you to everyone who contributed from the stage; Thorleif Fyrand, André Moe Bakke, Fred Høifødt, Javier Delgado Sauermann, Michele Legernes and Toby Brooks 🌟
Throughout the day, perspectives were shared, experiences exchanged and there was a clear openness in the room. People listened, asked questions and added their own reflections.
When local, national and international players meet like this, it adds something extra. Different viewpoints, different markets and real experience brought into the same room. And just as important, new connections were made. Conversations started that will continue beyond this day.
There is a lot to build on here. Vestfold has a strong maritime heritage. Now it is about building on it.
Thank you to everyone who joined and helped shape the day, and to Tønsberg og Færder Næringsforening , Vivil Hunding Strømme and the municipality for supporting the initiative 🙏
For us at Comet Growth, this is just the beginning.
We would gladly do this again.
