Future Week 2026

Some of the sharpest minds in the media are gathering in Bergen this September.

Future Week 2026 is Media Cluster Norway's annual flagship conference, bringing together around 300 senior media and technology leaders from across the Nordics and internationally. Over two days at Media City Bergen (23–24 September), the programme explores three questions every media leader is grappling with right now: what AI will change and what will remain human, who audiences trust and why it matters more than ever, and what separates the winners from the rest.

Confirmed speakers include Tony Pastor (Goalhanger, the studio behind The Rest Is History and The Rest Is Politics), Mitali Mukherjee (Reuters Institute), Gard Steiro (VG), Maxwell Tani (Semafor) and Tim Forrest (ITN), alongside voices from BBC, TV 4, NRK, Yle and TV 2.

It's a boutique, high-level event, the kind where the conversations are unusually candid and the connections genuinely useful.
