KIC Days 2026
KIC Days is a new national meeting place at Kristineberg Innovation Center, bringing together companies, researchers, public authorities, investors and innovation support organisations to explore the opportunities within the blue economy.
Over two days – from lunch to lunch – participants will experience Kristineberg's unique innovation environment through live demonstrations, guided site visits, research insights, industry case studies and networking. The event focuses on fostering new collaborations, showcasing testing and development capabilities, and connecting industry needs with research and innovation to accelerate the future of ocean-based industries.
