Overarching science strategies, plans and policies
- National Whitepaper: “Climate for research” describes the overall Norwegian government’s research strategy.[1]
- National Whitepaper: “Marine Bioprospecting- a source of new and sustainable wealth growth” describes the Norwegian government’s strategy for marine bioprospecting.[2]
- National Whitepaper: “National strategy for biotechnology” describes the Norwegian government’s strategy on biotechnology.[3]
- National White paper: “Strategy for an Environmentally Sustainable Norwegian Aquaculture Industry” describes the Norwegian government’s strategy on aquaculture.[4]
- National White paper: “Nordområdestrategien” describes the Norwegian government’s strategy for research in the high north.[5]
- National Whitepaper: "Long-term plan for research and higher education 2015–2024" describes the government's focus for 10 years.[6]
Research funding schemes and programmes
The Research Council of Norway (RCN) funds research projects, innovation projects, industrial projects and infrastructure. Relevant research programmes includes:
- BIOTEK2021: A research financing program that finance applied academic research and industrial development of biotechnology.[7]
- Aquaculture- An industry in growth: A research financing program that finance applied academic research and industrial development on aquaculture and fisheries.[8]
- The ocean and the coast: A research financing program that finance academic research and industrial development on eco systems and the marine environment.[9]
- Sustainable Innovation in Food and Bio-based Industries: A research financing program that finance applied academic research and industrial development of bio-based industries.[10]
- Polar research: A research financing program that finance research on sustainable management and development of industries in the high north.[11]
- Pre-industrial support: A funding program focused on technology transfer from academia to industry.[12]
- Industrial support: A funding program supporting industrial developments.[13]
Innovation Norway funds innovation projects with industry and infrastructure. Relevant programmes include:
- Public R&D contracts and Private R&D contracts, where SMBs can be funded with up to 35% in a collaboration project with either a public or private customer.[14]
- Entrepreneurial grant, where start-ups can be funded in an initial period of the company.[15]
SIVA funds infrastructures, such as laboratories and necessary housing for innovation centres.[16]
Regional research foundations funds research projects, innovation projects, industrial projects and infrastructure.[17]
A collaboration effort exists between Innovation Norway, The research council of Norway, SIVA and equivalent research councils in the United Kingdom to fund innovation and applied research in marine biotechnology.[18]
Research priorities for marine biotechnology research
- Bioprospecting / Biodiscovery, Aquaculture, Human and animal health
- Fisheries
- Polar research
- Industrial biotechnology
- Bio-based industries

- CodTech laboratory (NTNU)
- IMR - Austevoll Research Station (Institute of Marine Research)
- Biotech North: BioTech North is the network organisation for the development of biotechnology in the Tromsø region in North Norway.[24]
- 10 biotechnology platforms: These technology platforms have been built up during the course of the FUGE programme. They offer service in different high tech niches to academic researchers and industry.[25]
- MarBank: A national marine biobank organising the collection, and structuring of the marine biodiversity for research and industrial development.[26][27]
Major initiatives
- The two major initiatives within marine sciences are the Aquaculture program and the BIOTEK2021 program mentioned above.
