Background
The theme of the conference is social innovation strategies for sustainable growth. Central to the conference is reporting and commenting on findings from the Norwegian Innovation Index - the world's first and largest measurement of customers' perception of how innovative important businesses are.
We believe that growth in the economy is important to be able to solve the many challenges we face in the future. But the growth must be based on at least four conditions: that we do not draw on non-renewable input factors, that the growth does not increase the growth in CO2 emissions, that we are able to include as many people as possible in the workforce, and that we are able to fairly distribute the value creation.
