Business Summit
Through two annual flagship events — the Oslo Runway Business Summit in May and the Oslo Runway fashion week schedule in Aug/Sept — our platform functions as a meeting place for the creative industry and a front-row view of the intersection between fashion, lifestyle, business and culture.
The first ever annual Oslo Runway Business Summit, designed as a networking arena connecting brands, partners and industry professionals, was kicked off in May 2026, inviting the industry to a day full of inspiring talks and panel discussions. Ending in a rooftop dinner, it was an event that allowed for useful exchanges, industry updates, networking, inspiration and community-building.
Each year, the Business Summit will have a main theme that's connected to one of the key discussions shaping the current market – such as the 2026 edition's “The Road to Customers: How to Scale Your Community”.
