Regforsk
The main goals of Regforsk are to provide evidence that can contribute to improved decisions in health policy and health care. We aim to reach this goal by applying cutting edge methods for observational data to answer the most pressing questions in health service delivery. The research often sparks lively debates because we ask questions that affect us all. For example, does the distance to a hospital affect birth outcomes? What happens to patients’ health after a GP quits practice? Research efforts are primarily organized by Regforsk, but we are eager to participate in projects across research environments and particularly in cooperation with clinical environments, health care and public institutions.

The Norwegian Nobel Institute
The Norwegian Nobel Institute was established 1 February, 1904, tasked with supporting the Nobel Committee in its review of nominations and candidates for the Nobel Peace Prize. According to §12 of the Nobel Foundation statutes,"each Nobel Institute shall be under the leadership of the prize-awarding body that established it." The Director of the Institute is the Nobel Committee's permanent secretary, and the Institute can be regarded as the Committee's secretariat. The events in December are all planned and coordinated through this office. For the first few years The Norwegian The Nobel Institute rented offices in Victoria Terrasse in downtown Oslo, but by May 1905 the move was made to the present building in Henrik Ibsens gate 51. The award ceremony was moved there the same year, having previously taken place in the Storting (Norwegian Parliament). The building, originally constructed in 1867 as a private residence, had by then undergone extensive renovation. The Institute contains offices, a meeting room, the Grand Hall, a research department, library and reading room. The Nobel Committee meets in a special meeting room devoted exclusively to this purpose. The tradition has gradually developed of using the Institute’s Grand Hall both for the October announcement of the year's Peace Prize in October and for the Laureate's press conference on 9 December, the day before the award ceremony in Oslo City Hall. The Nobel Peace Prize is always awarded on 10 December, the day Alfred Nobel passed away. The Nobel Institute library opened to the public in September 1905. Today it is a specialized library containing some volumes in the fields of international history and politics since 1800, international law, peace studies, and international economics.

Centre For Climate And Energy Transformation
While we have acquired substantial knowledge about physical climate changes and to some extent their impacts on society, new knowledge is needed on how to achieve deep, rapid and sustainable transformation of society. The overarching goal of CET is to produce actionable knowledge that can inform policy and practice about how to achieve deep, rapid and sustainable transformation of society to mitigate climate change. To achieve this, CET will initiate and conduct problem-oriented social science research in collaboration with researchers from other disciplines, and with the involvement of public and private sector user partners when appropriate. CET will bring together scientists from a variety of social science and other disciplines, and strengthen itself as a broad and visible interdisciplinary knowledge hub regionally, nationally and internationally. Climate and energy transition is one of three priority areas at the University of Bergen (UiB). The Centre for Climate and Energy Transformation (CET) was established in 2016 by the Faculty of Social Sciences as a hub for interdisciplinary research with a basis in the social sciences in this area. CET brings together researchers from three partner institutions - the University of Bergen, NORCE Norwegian Research Centre AS and NHH Norwegian School of Economics.

Nyanalyse As
NyAnalyse har utviklet en ny modell som beregner ringvirkninger fra en virksomhet for resten av samfunnet. Dette samfunnsregnskapet synliggjør de positive økonomiske effektene bedriften har på underleverandører og resten av økonomien for å illustruere viktigheten av din virksomhet. Samfunnsregnskapet bygger på regnskapstall, samt offentlig data, og har til hensikt å vise hva din virksomhet bidrar med i samfunnet både gjennom de skatter og avgifter virksomheten betaler på omsetning, verdiskapning og ansatte, men også hvordan dine underleverandører påvirkes av din virksomhets aktivitet. Videre kan vi vise hvilke positive ringvirkningseffekter din virksomhet skaper både oppover og bortover i verdikjeden i form av verdiskapning og offentlige inntekter. Ringvirkningseffektene skaper ikke bare økt økonomisk aktivitet for deg og dine underleverandører, men vil i form av skatter og avgifter kunne finansierer et gitt antall lærere, sykepleiere eller barnehageplasser.

Ophiolite
At Ophiolite AS, we develop durable, recyclable composite materials for high-performance applications, while guiding the twin transition toward green innovation and digital transformation. Our strategy is grounded in the Ophiolite Three-Pillar Framework for Exploitation: Design for Circularity We begin with upcycled or waste-derived raw materials and design for full lifecycle use, enabling materials to be reused, repaired, or recycled across multiple product generations. Functional Additive Innovation We engineer tailored material properties—including thermal resistance, durability, and chemical stability—through advanced additives and digital modelling, making our composites suitable for extreme environments and net-zero infrastructure. Market-Driven Integration & Reuse We work with partners to align innovation with regulatory needs and commercial goals, supporting the implementation of climate-technology roadmaps and digital lifecycle tools. Our aim is to ensure broad adoption across priority markets. As part of this approach, Ophiolite is a core partner in the Horizon Europe project MODERATOR, where we lead the development of a novel multilayer insulation system for high-temperature thermal energy storage (TES). This system is designed to enhance heat recovery from data centers and industrial processes, helping transform waste heat into sustainable energy. Through science-based design and scalable circular solutions, Ophiolite bridges R&D and market uptake—empowering Europe’s path to a low-carbon, digital future.
