Building leaders who change the world.

Oslo Business Forum was started in January 2016, by the two co-founders Christoffer Omberg and Marius Røed Wang, two students from BI Norwegian Business School. The purpose was to challenge the status quo in the Norwegian business community. 

Ten months later, the first conference was organized in November 2016. Sir Alex Ferguson, the manager of Manchester United through 26 years, was the first keynote speaker, in front of 850 guests at Oslo Concert Hall.

Since then, our annual business conference has grown to be one of the most significant business conferences in the world. In four short years, we have accomplished some major milestones we are proud of. Speakers such as President Barack Obama, Randi Zuckerberg, David Cameron and Gary Vaynerchuk have already guested our conference as keynote speakers.

In May 2019, we were partly acquired by Nordic Business Forum, one of the most noteworthy business conferences in the world. In 2021, we are organizing a masterclass, bootcamp and conference with world-class speakers.
