Will not the Nordic countries be cross-legged next week?

Next week will certainly be a festival for the people of the Nordic countries, and especially for those who are interested in the Nordic bioeconomy, which includes food and food production.

It is safe to say that rarely have so many events related to Nordic co-operation taken place in Iceland in one and the same week. Most of these events are related to the Icelandic Presidency of the Nordic Council of Ministers, but 2014 is Iceland's year in that presidency.

Below you can see the events that are available. The raisin in the sausage end is the Food Market of the Cage, which will be held on the weekend of 15 and 16 November.

  • November 10 and 11 - final meeting in Arctic Bioeconomy but the meeting is held at Matís (closed meeting).
  • November 11 - Nordic Vision Workshop
  • November 11 - 13:00 - 17:00 „Arctic Bioeconomy - Focus on West-Nordic Countries"- a conference held at the Nordic House.
