Startup Norway

Startup Norway is a private impact organization started in 2010 by passionate entrepreneurs, wanting to create a stronger and more inclusive startup community. Creating a strong startup ecosystem is a long-term mission. It is about the "circle of startup life" where the older generation entrepreneurs support the new in an eternal loop of paying it forward. We are in it for the long run, and are excited that every day we see a new sign that the ecosystem is getting stronger and stronger, with more and more new companies being on the track to success. And it's all with one goal: Setting the stage for tomorrow's startup success stories from our region. The event Startup Extreme was created by the passionate founders of Startup Norway in 2015, with the goal of showcasing the Norwegian startup scene to the world. Seven years on, Norway has evolved into one of Europe's fastest growing startup ecosystems.
