SmartOslo Accelerator is the first portal launched to create a dialogue between the City of Oslo and the startup community. Their goal is to create the best services for their citizens and to make Oslo a great city to live in.

How much do they invest?

As a part of SmartOslo Accelerator you will gain access to the right people and processes to accelerate your development. An experienced mentor will be assigned to you and follow you throughout the program. The accelerator is free of charge and startups at all stages of development are welcome.

How do they work?

Send the name of your project and a description of your idea and why you think it will help the City of Oslo. Explain why there is a need for your business proposals and why they should shortlist you for the pitching weekend.

This makes a difference to them

The Accelerator is looking for Norway-based startups who are motivated to work with the city of Oslo and who are happy to explore new ways of collaborating. They want entrepreneurs with a great idea and a huge passion for Oslo.
