Norwegian AI Startup Landscape
Do you represent a Norwegian start-up that uses AI technology to work towards a better future? Previously, there was no unified platform to showcase or connect AI innovators in Europe, but the AI Startup landscape does something about that. It not only provides connections within the ecosystem, but also with early stage investors and potential customers.
Norwegian Artificial Intelligence Research Consortium (NORA), Cluster for Applied AI and Norwegian Open AI Lab (NAIL) have joined forces to create the Norwegian version of the AI Startup Landscape, and the aim is to promote good start-ups from all over the country! The Norwegian AI Startup Landscape gives promising companies a visible platform to showcase their technology and solutions. It also makes it easier for companies, SMEs, investors and other stakeholders to gain access to AI partners they can trust.
The platform opens up new opportunities for start-ups nationally, while also contributing to the use of AI in Norway. A win-win situation for both start-ups and the country!
The Norwegian AI Landscape is part of the European AI Startup Landscape which today contains 500+ AI start-ups from France, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden.
