In a large survey of people who have moved to the country they now live in, Norway is almost at the bottom of the ranking of where it is easy to settle in. Oslo is a city with a large influx of people and India is the country from which we receive the most immigrants.

Almost 2,000 Indians received work permits in Norway in 2019. It is a big job for Norway to adapt to the working life of the future, and we need the best people. In that case, international experience and competence outside national borders is essential. Without diversity, the pace of innovation is poor. Already within the next year, India will have more inhabitants than China. India has a young population. Half of the Indians are under 25 years of age. The overall story for India’s economy is a massively growing workforce. Is Norway equipped to attract them and preserve Indian talent?

This event is in collaboration with The Moderne India

The program:

Øystein Søreide from Abelia
Rina Sunder from DMI: India’s workforce
Jyoti Sohal David from Umbrella: The importance of diversity
Case 1: TietoEvry
Case 2: TCS Nordics
