The Bislett Alliance is incredibly proud that our main sponsor Storebrand this year has the former vice president <\/span><\/span>of the USA and Nobel Prize winner Al Gore as a speaker at their sustainability conference which is held just hours before the Oslo Bislett Games starts. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

– Al Gore has been my great inspiration and role model for my own sustainability journey, says Bislett Games meeting-director Steinar Hoen. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

– It was his Oscar-winning film “An Inconvenient<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> Truth”, released in 2006, that really opened my eyes to the dangers of global warming. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

– His way of inspiring change, as well as showing what is needed, helped us in the Bislett Alliance to change course. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

– Bislett Games started its own green transformation in 2017 after 29 years with ExxonMobil as title sponsor and we set ourselves three main goals. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. 1. Bislett Games will be the world’s most sustainable international athletics meeting. <\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  2. 2. Bislett Stadium will be a showcase for Oslo’s ambitions for a sustainable and modern city. <\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  3. 3. The Bislett Conference shall be the leading meeting place between sustainable companies and sports. <\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The Bislett conference was arranged in 2017 and 2018 with the environmental organization ZERO as co-organizer. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    From 2019, the conference changed its name when our main sponsor Storebrand became the responsible organizer. The Storebrand conference “Good Money” was held in 2019 and was a huge success. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    In 2020, the conference was canceled while in 2021 it went digital. Now the conference is back just hours before the Oslo Bislett Games on Thursday 16 June. <\/span><\/span>This year the conference is hybrid.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    The conference itself will be held at Thon Hotel Bristol, but it is <\/span><\/span>free to anyone who wants to follow it digitally. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    – <\/span><\/span>We are so proud of what we started in 2017 has now been continued by Storebrand, and that this now culminates with Al Gore himself on stage<\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
