About Smart Cities Norway

Smart Cities Norway is a national non-profit association aiming at accelerating smart city development, and transform Norway into a leading smart city nation. Norway is a small, but advanced society, well equipped for developing an international, competitive industry where cities, businesses, state, organizations, academia and committed citizens are all collaborating.

We focus our work in the following areas:

  • Working groups aiming at producing concrete output for common good.
  • Increase awareness and competency related to smart cities (online news, social media groups)
  • Informal Norwegian network for all smart city players in the quadruple helix (public, commercial, acedemia, cicil soociety)

Smart Cities Norway is also the co-ordinator for Open and Agile Smart Cities (OASC), a network of more than 100 cities in 22 countries world-wide
