Unlock Growth in Your Company
It is a well known fact that Norway is lagging behind in the race of creating growth companies. Our growth programme 100ScaleUPs, is designed to unlock rapid growth in companies.
We are now recruiting companies for the third edition of the growth programme; 100ScaleUPs starting fall 2020. The programme will be executed in Bergen, Norway and also in digital format led by MIT Boston. Would you like to join?
Eight companies from our cluster participated in the 2019 edition of the programme; Unitech Offshore, Metas, Imenco and Aquafarm Equipment.
I would like to mention the new scaleup programme by GCE Ocean Technology, BI, MIT and VIS. This was quite timely and proved to be very useful for OCTIO as we were planning our scale-up strategies for some of our services» Leon Løvheim, Octio. Participant of 100ScaleUPs 2018.
