Establish or further develop your business?

The Kongsvinger region wants growth - therefore the municipalities assist companies and founders who need help quickly and efficiently. 

"We needed new premises for our production, we found this with the help of Klosser Innovation and landlord Kongevegen 88 AS. We received help with adaptations of premises, establishment of a production line, access to local workers and good help from Innovation Norway and Kongsvinger municipality in the form of support."

Close follow-up - as an incubator or target company

Klosser Innovation can offer a 2-year «Incubator program» to both existing and new companies. Through the program you get access to professional business developers, capital and networks. We have particularly good expertise within industry. Contact Werner Melby in Klosser Innovation for information and assessment of the idea in relation to incubation. Sør-Hedmark Industrial Park (located at Magnor, Flisa and Skarnes) offers support to business owners in their premises through the target company program. As a target company, you work purposefully with business development over time, together with the business park. The focus will be on value creation for the individual company, by further developing the business environment, network and profile.

Contact your nearest business park to hear more about how your company can become a target company.
