Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Norinnova Forvaltning?
Partner Karl-Johan Jakola is the named principal on the firm's website and the primary contact for the manager. The firm has not publicly detailed an investment committee structure, but Jakola's role as Partner indicates he oversees the investment activities of the two managed funds.
Is Norinnova Forvaltning a single family office or a venture firm?
Norinnova Forvaltning is structured as a capital management company (kapitalforvaltningsselskap) that manages investments for two funds, Norinnova Invest AS and Norinnova AS. It is not a family office; its mandate is venture and early-stage investing on behalf of those pooled vehicles.
What investment stages does Norinnova Forvaltning typically target?
The firm targets early-stage companies, including seed and startup phases, according to its strategy profile. Its portfolio of university spinouts and research-park graduates reflects a focus on pre-revenue and early-commercialization companies in northern Norway.
Which sectors does Norinnova Forvaltning explicitly avoid?
The firm has not published an exclusion list. Given its deal history and location in Tromsø's research park, the manager naturally gravitates toward technology, enterprise software, and life sciences rather than extractive industries or traditional heavy industry.
Does Norinnova Forvaltning maintain philanthropic structures, and how are they separated?
No philanthropic foundations or charitable vehicles are publicly associated with Norinnova Forvaltning or its managed funds. The firm operates purely as a commercial investment manager under Norwegian regulatory structure.
