June 9 - Nordkraft Dinner

On the first day of conference June 9, the Chairmen Professor Arne Remmen, Aalborg University and Coordinator Henrik Riisgaard, Sustainable Business Forum North Denmark will host a Nordkraft Dinner. The dinner will begin at 19:30, and will be held in the Nordkraft Cultural Center, Kjellerups Torv 5.

Nordkraft was built in 1954-56, and housed North Denmark’s power industry. Today this building is being turned into a cultural center for activities such as music, art, theater, film, and sports. The original structure has been preserved for its cultural and architectural value. Ideally located in central Aalborg’s waterfront area, you are invited to be one of the first to experience this historic landmark with international dimensions.
