NæringsGIV 2025 once again brought together businesses from Etne and Vindafjord for a day of networking, conversations, and inspiration at Olalia, a well-known mountain spot in Vindafjord municipality.
Pictured are representatives from Omega 365 Design (Astrid Eidhammer Hjelmeland, Inga Klokkerstuen Wangensteen, and Maria Djuve Vågen), Omega 365 Areal (Elisabeth Silde), Omega 365 Solutions (Håvard Matre and Åsmund Aarekol), and Omega 365 Consulting (Terje Aarekol).
The program included grilling, talks, and mingling. Speakers included Helene Frihammer from NHO Vestland, NAV’s statistics chief Ulf Andersen, and Henning Aarekol, who spoke openly about personal challenges and resilience.
Skakkekokken Roy Martin Øyjord prepared food for the event, and participants also got to enjoy the popular sausages from Fatland AS. The day ended with interviews featuring local companies and the presentation of awards for “Company of the Year,” “Entrepreneur of the Year,” and “Newcomer of the Year.”
NæringsGIV remains a valuable meeting point for local businesses and a good opportunity to increase visibility in the region.
