Norway is thriving in research-based innovation. Its mission is to provide cutting-edge advancements, methodologies, and technologies for the successful use of data-driven AI in novel medical and industrial solutions...
Norway, located in Northern Europe, has long been known for being at the forefront of technological advancements. Over the years, this has been made possible by numerous organizational initiatives, including the Norwegian Artificial Intelligence Research Consortium, a partnership between 8 universities, three university colleges, and four research institutes in the fields of AI, machine learning, and robotics.
Enhancing Norwegian innovation, research, and teaching in these areas is also the main goal of the Norwegian Artificial Intelligence Society (NAIS). This open, non-profit organization works to increase interest in Norwegian AI domestically and abroad, aiming to operate as a hub for communication and collaboration between the members and the general public.
As part of Norway’s effort to keep moving forward in artificial intelligence, the country established NorwAI, a center for research-based innovation financed by the Research Council of Norway. The center’s mission is to provide cutting-edge theories, methodologies, and technology for the responsible, ethical, and successful use of data-driven AI in novel industrial solutions.(1)
