Evolve Arena is an experience-based conference for the development of our future cities and societies. In 2021 the conference will be held the 10th and 11th of November and will deal with tomorrow’s city and how we can create better lives and live smarter with the help of smart technology.
You will meet 100 speakers who will talk about Mobility, Urban and City Development, Health, Food and Circular Economy, and we have a solid team of central players within all topics:
Skift is a business-led climate initiative. Their mission is to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy. Skift is responsible for the circular economy programme. Nordic EV Summit is owned by The Norwegian Electric Vehicle Association – NEVA – and Norway Trade Fairs and is in charge of the mobility track at the conference. The urban development track is covered by Norwegian Property Federation and Smart Cities Norway, food is powered by Foodscape, and the topic health is elaborated in collaboration with E-Health in Norway (EHiN).
This year we focus on the cooperation across sectors and the head keynote speakers are:

In addition to this, we will pay an extra attention and tribute to five start-ups under The Edutainment Tonight Show, hosted by Ed Gillespie. Ed is a knowledgeable, competent and easy-going lecturer who will guide you through five entertaining and educating pitches from start-ups you don’t want to miss. Like all great night shows, The Edutainment Tonight Show will be accompanied by Need Music creating an unforgettable atmosphere.
