1. INTRODUCTIE
Noorwegen is niet alleen gekend om haar olie en natuur (bergen, fjorden, gletsjers, het noorderlicht), maar
ook vanwege haar hoge levensstandaard en als één van de Noordse landen met de gelukkigste burgers ter
wereld. 1
Met een relatief kleine bevolking (5.356.789 inwoners) is de start-up scene vrij hecht. Start-ups kunnen
profiteren van overheidsinitiatieven zoals Oslo Business Region, hackthons en bruisende lokale
evenementen zoals Startup Extreme en Oslo Innovation Week.
In deze paper vindt u relevante organisaties voor start-ups, incubators en accelerators en een opsomming
van wat momenteel de meest belovende start-ups en de voornaamste incubators en accelerators in
Noorwegen zijn. Aangezien de markt continue in ontwikkeling is, is het helaas onmogelijk om alle bedrijven
weer te geven, deze paper dient dan ook als een beginnende wegwijs in de wereld van start-ups, incubators
en accelerators in Noorwegen.

Het concept “Business Garden” is een nationaal programma dat eigendom is van en gedeeltelijk
gefinancierd wordt door Kommunal- og moderniseringsdepartementet (the Ministry of Local
Government and Modernisation). Hoofddoel is om innovatie, ontwikkeling en nieuwe bedrijven in
landelijke gebieden te laten groeien. De ‘Business Gardens’ richten hun focus voornamelijk op
toekomstige talenten (de jeugd).
Een ‘Business Garden’ is een klein bedrijfscentrum met co-locatie start-up bedrijven. Het is hierbij
van belang dat het initiatief tot het oprichten van een ‘Business Garden’ wordt genomen door de
ondernemers en niet door de lokale overheid of gemeente.
