Digitalization – who is paying for the party?
Tuesday, September 22nd at 12.30 – 16.00
As at AquaNext in 2024, we are also hosting our own digital seminar. This was sold out last time. This committee has put together a strong program that is relevant for employees at all levels working with ICT and digitalisation:
Trond Erik Bones, Senior Advisor, Fraktal
Thomas Wiig, Group CDO, Scale
Andreas Storebø, Lead Digital Transformation – Farming, Lerøy
Lars Ebbeson, Chief Scientist, Senior Aquaculture Advisor, NORCE
Kristine Hartmann, CEO, Salmon Living Lab
The seminar addresses key challenges the aquaculture industry faces in the context of digitalisation. Which business models will become most relevant in the interaction between producers and suppliers? What is required of each individual company – and the industry as a whole – to succeed in practice?
Skilled employees from major producers such as Mowi and Lerøy will share their experiences. Through cases and discussions from both producers and suppliers, the seminar will give participants a better understanding of how data can create long-term biological and operational value. We will also have exciting presentations from Professor Lasse Lien at the Norwegian School of Economics and Thomas-Hoff Hansen, CIO at Aker BP.
The closing conversation will feature Camilla Stoltenberg, CEO of NORCE, Kristine Hartmann, Managing Director of Salmon Living Lab, and Catarina Martins, Chief Technology and Sustainability Officer at Mowi.
Shahzad Rana was our moderator last time. He is one of Norway’s most experienced voices in digitalisation and technology leadership. He is passionate about how companies and public agencies can use technology to realise their visions. He has broad experience as a serial entrepreneur in the industry and started his first company in 1993. He was Chief Technology Officer at Microsoft Norway for 15 years. Rana has been a member of the Energi21 board, whose main task is to follow up the mandate from the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy and develop the national strategy for research, development, demonstration, and commercialisation of new climate-friendly energy technology. He is currently involved in Northern Lights, which is part of the government’s Longship project on carbon capture and storage.
