There is little doubt that there is a considerable potential for establishment of commercial activity in the SAIL field in Norway and the other Nordic countries. The biggest challenge here will be charting and identification of a sufficient quantity of entrepreneurs and companies that want to set up here in oss, and in a Nordic perspective, so that we attain a critical mass of players. Like many other nations Norway need skilled workers. We have to further educate our work force, and to attract skilled people to take jobs in our country. High living standards gained through our welfare system, our culture and a good environment will therefore be a factor to support our businesses into the new economy.
New technology brings about radical changes in the socieity.
No sector is untouched. Today we can not overview the technical possibilities of tomorrow. However, we have to grasp the opportunities the new technology provides. SAIL technology is definitively such an opportunity. But, the technology is useless if it doesn t make us a better future.
