PolarEXPO invites all related industries and businesses, as well as all governmental and private organisations operating in the polar sciences, to meet in Oslo in June. We look forward to see state-of-the-art equipment, products and services.

Download the full PolarEXPO brochure - and the Exhibitiors Contract - from the Downloads section/ Programme updates.

The exhibition will be held in conjunction with IPY-OSC 2010. The conference covers all aspects of the polar sciences and aims to demonstrate, strengthen, and extend IPY's remarkable accomplishments in science and outreach. The IPY-OSC 2010 will emphasize the breadth and global impact of polar research during the IPY. About 3000 participants are expected.

The IPY-OSC 2010 provides a meeting spot for people from a huge variety of companies, private and governmental research institutions, universities as well as all the organisations coordinating and facilitating polar research in the Arctic and Antarctica.

The 350 meters long indoor street connects conference- and EXPO-halls and is ideal for mingling and networking.PolarEXPO is the ideal venue for contacts, exchange of experience and business opportunities for all those who work either as scientists or business operators in the relevant fields. It is also an ideal setting for science publishers to display their most recent books and journals. A large number of students will be present at the conference, and exhibitors should also consider the PolarEXPO as a unique venue for recruitment.

Some exhibitor categories will be particularly relevant to the IPY-OSC participants:

  • Polar logistics providers
  • Field equipment and supply industry
  • Space and satellite technologies
  • Suppliers of instruments/laboratories
  • ICT - technology
  • Mineral / petroleum / energy industry
  • Environmental associations / NGOs
  • Publishers - books, journals, maps
