Arctic Entrepreneur is one of the largest meeting places in the construction industry, organized by the Association of Machinery Contractors (MEF). The event will take place from 21 to 23 January 2025 in The Qube at Clarion Hotel & Congress Oslo Airport in Gardermoen.
The program for 2025 includes three days of professional seminars, a large exhibition with over 110 suppliers presenting the latest in machinery and equipment, as well as social gatherings such as the Winter Festival and the Barracks Dinner. Among the topics addressed are sustainability, artificial intelligence, water and wastewater, recycling, winter operation and blasting.
Arctic Entrepreneur is open to anyone with an interest in the construction industry, not just MEF members. Close to 1800 participants are expected and the exhibition is free to visit. Registration and more information is available at the event official website.

But the skills pledge is urgent.

A role-based training matrix provides an overview of competency requirements per role and makes training easier to manage and document.

Compulsory training does not have to be either long courses or short learning sessions.
