We develop commercial concepts from relevant research results, and commercialise these either through selling technology, licensing or through establishing new spin-off companies.
Our current portfolio consists of eleven spin-off companies that have been established based on technologies developed at SINTEF.
About 80 new technologies have been commercialised through spinn-offs or licensing in the last ten years.
Here are a few examples of our exits.
SINTEF has established a NOK 500 million early stage investment fund to develop new technology companies. SINTEF, The European Investment Fund and several private, Norwegian investors are partners in the fund.
EIF is EU's specialist provider of risk finance for SMEs across the EU and in EFTA countries. Its investment in SINTEF Venture V, which is EIF's largest investment to date in Norway, is supported by InnovFin Equity, with the financial backing of the European Union under Horizon 2020 Financial Instruments.
