This past decade has been a journey of engagement, community, and growth, where family businesses from across the country have shared experiences, challenges, and visions. Together, we’ve built a vibrant network of owners and generations who all share a common belief: that family businesses are essential to Norwegian business and to local communities throughout the country.
We are therefore delighted to invite you to our grand 10-year anniversary celebration at the prestigious Grand Hotel in Oslo. Right in the heart of the capital, we’ll gather members and guests of the association for an evening filled with delicious food in beautiful surroundings, inspiring moments, and meaningful conversations.
The theme for 2025 – and for this year’s Nordic Summit – is Navigating Paradoxes. And this evening will be a journey in itself – from reflections on how it all began to the dreams and ambitions guiding us into the future.
This anniversary is not just about Family Business Norway. It’s about the members – and all of you who have chosen to be a part of this association. Those who have shared their stories, challenged us, supported one another, and helped us proudly say: who owns a business matters!
This celebration also marks the start of the Nordic Summit 2025, where you will have the opportunity to meet other owners from across the Nordics. By registering for the Nordic Summit, you are automatically registered for the anniversary celebration on June 11.
Join us as we celebrate ten years of family, future, and community. It’s an evening we’ve long looked forward to – and we hope you’ll be there to make it truly complete.
Welcome to the 10-year anniversary celebration at Grand Hotel in Oslo – we can’t wait to see you!
