Scaling programmes for Norwegian tech firms
- Innovation Norway presents three selective, market-driven, industry-agnostic international programmes for Norwegian technology firms, across SaaS, AI, robotics, deep tech and other fields. They connect companies with customers, partners, investors and mentors in Silicon Valley, New York and London, at different growth stages.
- TINC (Tech Incubator Silicon Valley) is an intensive five-week programme for Nordic firms with a defined solution in early commercialization, seeking customer validation/product-market fit and preparation for scaling. Listed gains: direct international-customer/ecosystem exposure, structured market feedback, mentor access and a stronger basis for scaling decisions.
- EMNY (Executive Marketing New York) serves Norwegian firms with validated product-market fit and early international traction/revenue. It offers market immersion, partnerships and access to US decision-makers; listed benefits include five months of one-to-one strategic mentoring, introductions to partners/customers/investors and a growth pathway.
- TEA (Tech Executive Accelerator London) targets firms beyond early validation and seeking European/international growth, partnerships and stronger market position. Benefits listed include access to London’s tech ecosystem/mentors/investors, strategic guidance, partnership/visibility support and practical scaling tools. Links provide additional EMNY and TEA information in Norwegian.
