4: Talent mobility India-Norway.

With Norway facing a growing knowledge and resource gap in key sectors, there is a significant opportunity for collaboration through talent mobility between India and Norway. India, with its vast pool of highly skilled professionals, can help address Norway’s talent shortages in areas like technology, engineering, healthcare and more. Facilitating the movement of talent between the two countries can foster innovation, enhance competitiveness and create mutual growth -filling gaps in Norway’s workforce with India’s expertise and resources.
