    Tight deadlines

    Kongsberg Agenda is launching the first program entries for our concept stages today, January 15th. For the first time, organizers have had to apply for space on the stages that the technology festival "owns".

    The preliminary program for the concept stages after round 1 is at the bottom of the page.

  • High quality and wide spread Anne Cecilie Lund-Andersen - Programleder Kongsberg Agenda

    High quality and wide spread

    – There will be a lot of interesting things for the audience to choose from. I hope that the visitors will challenge themselves. Of course, they will pick program entries within their field of interest, but there will be plenty of opportunities to step out of their comfort zone and gain insight into something completely new, says Lund-Andersen.

    She is impressed by the high quality of the applications and the professional diversity.

    – We are now looking forward to starting with the applications that have entered round two.
