Norwegian Bioeconomy Strategy now available in English

The OECD considers the potential for value creation associated with the bioeconomy to be significant.

Through targeted and coordinated efforts, better use of renewable biological resources can contribute to renewed growth and a green shift in the Norwegian economy. The government has therefore decided to draw up a national bioeconomy strategy.
