Can we find solutions to the climate challenges?

This conference is for those who are dedicated to safeguarding society, infrastructure, and people against the increasingly severe climate challenges.

By bringing together engaged and wise minds in one place, we can create a catalyst for new ideas, innovation, and future collaboration. Perhaps we will find some of the solutions here?

The Sensor Decade is an Oslo Science City Arena event. It is a place to share knowledge and experience, accelerating the growth of new ideas. Oslo Science City wants to help enable and improve innovation opportunities by creating an arena for leading researchers and highly motivated students to interact with dynamic business incubators and disruptive companies.

This Workshop brings together relevant stakeholders from Norway to discuss the future of on- and offshore geotechnics and natural hazards in the light of digitalization. While digital innovation brings many opportunities, it also brings challenges and concerns. The workshop is a platform for open discussion on these important aspects of Digital Innovation.

The main thematic sessions will address Artificial Intelligence, Hyperspectral Imaging and Information Modelling in Geoengineering. There will also be plenty of time for many interactive sessions and personal discussions with NGI’s experts and among participants.

The ISSW (International Snow Science Workshop) facilitates an interdisciplinary exchange of ideas and experiences, and the conference will welcome stakeholders and snow professionals worldwide.

The conference´s motto; “A merging of theory and practice”. 

Through a wide range of presentation formats, the ISSW offer a gathering ground which facilitates direct interaction amongst the audience, participants, and snow professionals. 

We look forward to welcoming people from the snow and avalanche community to Tromsø, Norway, 23-29 September 2024. 

NGI organizes the 1st international Rock Mass Classification Conference” (RMCC) in Oslo at the end of October 2024. The conference theme is “Rock Mass Classification meets the Challenges of the 21st Century” and we look forward to discussing rock mass classification with experts from industry and academia!

NGI organizes the 9th International Symposium for Geotechnical Safety and Risk (ISGSR). This is a successful biennial series of international conferences supported by the Geotechnical Safety Network (GEOSNet), ISSMGE Technical Committees TC304, TC205 and TC309, and ASCE Geo Institute’s Technical Committee on Risk Assessment and Management. 

The symposium will be held in Oslo, Norway, from August 24th to 27th, 2025. 

The theme of ISGSR 2025 is “Geotechnical Risk Frontiers” and will feature the latest research developments and innovations in engineering practice, focusing on using probabilistic and risk methodologies in geotechnical engineering.
