Accompanied by Ambassador Stefano Nicoletti and the Norwegian Ambassador to Rome, Johan Vibe, the over thirty participants met the Secretary of State at the Ministry of Trade and Industry Tor Sandvik, the Director General of the Norwegian Space Agency (NOSA), Christian Hauglie-Hanssen, and representatives of Innovation Norway.

On June 12, the mission visited the new Norwegian spaceport on the island of Andøya, which is located beyond the Arctic Circle. The space port will soon be active in launching satellites into polar orbits.
