Norinnova, which is short for Northern Innovations, changed its name from Tromsø Science Park Limited in 2003. In 2011 Norinnova AS merged with TTO Nord AS (Transfer Technology Office) and changed its name to Norinnova Technology Transfer AS. The company combines the role as a transfer technology unit from the R&D environments with the role as a business developer. Norinnova is a subsidiary of Norut AS, of which the University of Tromsø is the largest shareholder. Therefor the company is strongly rooted in the R&D environments in Tromsø, and also has a close collaboration with the knowledge-intensive industry in Northern Norway.
