An official visit by King Harald V. to Türkiye played an important role in the development of bilateral relations and helped to speed up the ongoing activities to establish a DEİK Türkiye-Norway Business Council. During the king’s visit a Turkish-Norwegian Business Forum was held at which DEİK and its Counterpart Organization, Innovation Norway, signed the Establishment Agreement.
