Code of Ethics for NOVA Spektrum

NOVA Spektrum creates and facilitates meeting places for the business community, cultural sector, and voluntary organizations. We represent an important channel for sales, marketing, and relationship building across a wide range of industries and sectors, and we welcome customers and visitors from all over the world.

  • We are an open and accessible venue for all organizations within the business sector, cultural sector, voluntary organizations, and the public sector. However, NOVA Spektrum is under no obligation to enter into any customer relationship and reserves the right to decline customers, partners, and business associates at its sole discretion and without providing a reason for such refusal.

  • We comply fully with sanctions imposed by the Norwegian authorities, including decisions adopted by the Norwegian Parliament (Stortinget), the European Union (EU), the United Nations Security Council, and other international organizations.

  • For inquiries from customers, partners, and business associates domiciled in, or closely connected to, countries with which Norway does not maintain a security policy partnership, an individual assessment is conducted prior to entering into any agreement. These assessments are based on guidance and recommendations issued by relevant authorities.

  • We do not engage in business relationships with customers, partners, or business associates whose activities may undermine or damage the reputation or integrity of NOVA Spektrum.

  • We may decline customers who intend to use NOVA Spektrum as a platform to promote or disseminate sensitive or controversial messages to a broader and/or public audience.

  • We provide guidance to our customers to ensure that the display or distribution of sensitive or controversial viewpoints, messages, expressions, objects, or other content that may be considered offensive or could have negative reputational consequences for other customers, an event, or NOVA Spektrum as a whole, is avoided. If a customer fails to follow NOVA Spektrum’s recommendations and there is a risk of negative reputational impact, NOVA Spektrum reserves the right to terminate the contractual relationship.
