Clara Idéathon 2022 - A great success

This weekend we hosted our first Clara Idéathon!


Participants at Clara Idéathon 2022 are seated at tables, working in groups. They are wearing dark blue t-shirts with "Clara Idéathon 2022" printed on the back. In the background, a large screen displays "Clara Idéathon 2022" along with the slogan "Where venture meets adventure."
Collaboration in action at Clara Idéathon 2022! Young talents brainstorm innovative solutions in groups, guided by expert mentors.

We gathered young talents with diverse backgrounds and experience to work on the problems Clara is seeking to solve every day.


The students explored ideas related to geothermal energy, thorium power, hydrogen batteries and clean offshore fuel cell power. Mentors from Clara Venture Labs provided expert competence to help the students understand the deep technical challenges.


The winning team, Thorium Solutions, proudly holds their prize check for 150,000 NOK at Clara Idéathon 2022. The team members are standing together and smiling, with a large screen displaying "Clara Idéathon 2022" in the background.

Each group presented their solution to their Clara Idéathon topic, and a dedicated jury selected a winner team - Thorium Solutions!


The jury consisted of Michelle Williams, CEO Clara Venture Labs, Karl Johnny Hersvik, CEO Aker BP and board member Clara Venture Labs, Crina Silvia Ilea, Head of MAP-G Clara venture labs, Jarle Farnes, Head of Hydrogen battery Clara Venture Labs, Sonia Faaland, PhD Head of R&D, Clara Venture Labs.


It was a great pleasure to get to know so many smart and forward-thinking students and receive fresh perspectives on key challenges that Clara is exploring.
