Test before invest

Creating value — from the start.

Implementing new technology in a company can be associated with significant risks. How will it fit into the other processes of the company? Do you have the necessary expertise to handle the technology internally? Will this technology actually solve the problems your customers are facing?

Making the wrong choices can have serious consequences, which is why we can help reduce the risk by offering suitable testing environments.

New technology can bring numerous benefits when used correctly. We aim to encourage Norwegian businesses to test this technology and become more competitive on a higher level. We provide

this to demonstrate how 'test-before-invest' can work in practice.
