09:00 – 10:30	Del 1. Little Norway making big green waves? With a population of only 5 million, Norway’s shipping fleet is measured to be the fourth largest in the world. With our natural resources and strategic closeness to the sea, how can we continue to use our unique knowledge of the ocean and technical expertise to make waves and drive changes on a global scale?

11:00 – 12:15	Del 2. Shipping: Tomorrow's unicorn? Shipping has a history of adapting rapidly to change. But in terms of adapting to new digital tools, we still have an untapped potential. How can new digital tools be used or develop and create new opportunities? And how can we utilize our own data as a new competitive advantage? Søren Meyer, CEO , Zero North Gabriel Fuentes, NHH Geir Olafsen, CDO, Siglar Carbon Thomas Leira, VAKE AI Siri P. Strandenes, professor, NHH

13:15 – 14:15	Del 3. Don’t be mean, we’re going green With a world fleet of close to 70.000 vessels, shipping emits close to 3 percent of the world’s greenhouse gasses. In fact, if shipping was a country, we would be the 6^th largest emitter followed by Germany. Measures must be taken shall we be able to reduce our emissions by 50% by 2050! An ambitious target which requires new technology and new energy sources that are not yet developed. So, what can we do with the vessels and energy we have? Can we take it step by step or is net zero the only way to go? Roar Ådland, professor, NHH Øystein Kalleklev, CEO, FLEX LNG
14:15 – 14:45	Coffe break & mingling
14:45 – 16:00	Del 4. Leading in a crisis while planning for the aftermath Shipping is on the verge of a tremendous change. Change that can be complex, challenging and fun. But mixing it with a crisis, such as Covid-19, navigating and leading change can potentially be catastrophic. What qualities and leaders do we need? And how can one lead in the acute phase while also planning strategically for what will happen after the crisis passes? Erna Solberg Pellegrino Riccardi , motivator and communications advisor Louise Dedichen, Vice Admiral, Norwegian Military Representative to NATO Simen Lieungh, CEO, Odfjell Drilling
