New Year's Reception on January 15th, 2026

The year 2025 was marked by government elections and their aftermath, as well as geopolitical shifts that have impacted the political and economic landscape in both countries. Europe has grown closer together, and the importance of successful German-Norwegian economic and political cooperation continues to increase.  

For 40 years, the German-Norwegian Chamber of Commerce has been dedicated to fostering relationships between German and Norwegian companies and organisations. The New Year’s Reception 2026 marks the beginning of a special year. Four decades of close cooperation, since the Chamber’s founding in 1986, provide an opportunity to reflect on the past. Above all, we would like to look forward to the next 40 years of bilateral cooperation. We will continue to actively build bridges between the countries, promote bilateral exchange, and support the growth and development of businesses in the years to come.  

Take this opportunity to raise a glass with our member companies and colleagues from the German-Norwegian network, to reflect on the past 40 years, look ahead to the next 40, exchange ideas, and establish new connections.
