Peder Nærbø
Founder & Executive Chair, Bulk Infrastructure ASMr. Nærbø is a Norwegian industrial builder. He has been a strong promoter of connecting Norway to the rest of the world with sustainable digital infrastructure and played a central role in building Norway's data center industry and global fiber connectivity.
In 2006, Peder founded Bulk with a mission to address Oslo's air quality problems. The solution was the development of strategic logistics buildings outside the capital and along the main thoroughfares, which reduced local pollution and traffic in the city. Today, Bulk is one of Norway's leading players in commercial property.
Driven by a strong desire to enhance Norway's digital position, he expanded Bulk into a leading Nordic infrastructure company specializing in data centers and fiber networks.
He saw early on the opportunity to use Norway's natural advantages from renewable energy, cool climate, and proximity to Europe to develop a digital hub that has both strengthened Norway's role as a digital nation and made the region attractive to leading global companies. Today Bulk has a portfolio of more than 100 companies, including four of the ten global tech companies.
Peder is a visionary leader and Norway's biggest contributor to Internet connectivity to the rest of the world. Together with the Bulk team, he works every day to realize the vision of making sustainable infrastructure available globally.
