During the event, Minesto’s CEO Dr. Martin Edlund engaged with Japanese government officials and key stakeholders to discuss the promising applications of ocean and tidal energy. Dr. Edlund emphasized, "Our participation in the World Expo in Osaka offers a great opportunity to create global awareness of the ocean and tidal currents as an untapped energy resource. Our technology can unlock this new renewable source in a competitive manner."

The Nordic pavilion, known as The Nordic Circle, served as a collaborative hub, featuring sustainability and innovation as key themes. Minesto's presence alongside other leading Swedish companies—such as EQT, Saab, and Volvo—highlighted the nation's focus on sustainable solutions for the future.
