Team Ireland in Norway

An overview of cooperation between the State Agencies and the Embassy in Norway
The Embassy works with Irish state agencies to:
  • Promote Ireland's trade and investment objectives
  • Promote Ireland's exports
  • Promote Irish food, culture, heritage and tradition
  • Promote Ireland as a tourism destination

Working with state agencies in Norway

The Embassy often receives queries from Irish companies or individuals about business in Norway. Once a query is received, we work closely with the relevant state agency to provide the best advice and assistance. We also seek out commercial opportunities for Irish businesses and key Irish sectors within Norway. With the assistance of the agencies we aim to:

  • Support Irish companies who want to find and access new markets and help with resolving commercial difficulties where possible
  • Provide general advice on doing business locally and, through our network of contacts, pursue export and investment opportunities that will benefit Ireland
  • Work to secure market access for Irish products in key sectors

Working with the right expertise in relevant state agencies is part of our successful strategy.
