Innovasjonsfond

The page "Finansiering av innovasjonsprosjekter" describes the scheme as providing "tilskudd og lån til bedrifter som bygger vekststrategien sin på innovasjon" (grants and loans for businesses building their growth strategy on innovation). It funds development or substantial improvement of new products, processes or services with a core of research and development.

The page states that "innovative bedrifter med internasjonalt vekstpotensial" (innovative businesses with international growth potential) can apply. The primary target is supplier companies developing and later commercialising products. Applicants must demonstrate the capability to execute and commercialise, adhere to responsible business principles, and have ethical guidelines. Applications are accepted "løpende" (on a rolling basis), and must be submitted before the project commences.

The public financing share is stated as "normalt begrenset til rundt 50 prosent" (normally limited to approximately 50 percent). No minimum or maximum per-project amount is stated on the page.

The instrument types are "tilskudd" (grants) and "lån" (loans). The page was last modified on 16 February 2026 ("Sist endret 16. feb. 2026").
