20Tretti is a three-part program, hosted by StartupLab, focusing on todays climate headaches.

Both Bergen and Oslo municipalities aim to be fossil fuel free by 2030. The clock is ticking fast, meaning climate action will not only be a competitive advantage in the nine years to come, it will become a necessity.

StartupLab works in the intersection between ambitious tech startups and the biggest corporations in Norway. With 20tretti, StartupLab brings climate headaches and climate solutions into dialogue.

NCE Seafood Innovation is one of 19 partners who has joined StartupLab in this years program, where we will be tackling plastic waste as our climate headache. Our team consists of highly resourceful and talented people from Benchmark Genetics, Lerøy Seafood and Skanem, who are all members of the cluster.

We are eager to get together with our team, and discuss plastic waste and define our climate headache.
