NORWAY

In the year 2000 Norway formally decided to institute a National ICT Policy (called eNorway), allowing it to proactively participate in the “knowledge economy”. Although a little late to the knowledge economy race, Norway has established a comprehensive plan and committed substantial resources in the pursuit of establishing ICT leadership. With regards to its R&D policy, Norwegian research is internationally oriented with extensive co-operation within Europe and with the rest of the world. As a fully integrated partner within the EU Framework programmes, Norway’s co-operation is accordingly a focal point for Norwegian R&D. The Research Council of Norway has primary responsibility for developing and implementing national research strategy, and for identifying priority areas for pure and applied research.
