Theme: “Our Future Design Story: How do we propel Norwegian design and manufacturing into a thriving future?”
On August 29, we marked an exciting milestone for Matre with the launch of our very first Design Salon, held in connection with our B2B debut at Kunstnernes Hus. It was an inspiring evening where leading voices from various industries came together to discuss the future of Norwegian design and manufacturing.
We explored how Norwegian design can adapt to a global market, enhance its competitiveness, and develop sustainable solutions that meet the demands of tomorrow. The discussions focused on how to foster innovation through cross-disciplinary collaboration, while also preserving and evolving Norwegian craft traditions in a modern context.
