    Goals / Remit

    NTNU, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, has as its mission “Knowledge for a better world” and creates solutions that can change our daily lives.
    In 2016, NTNU merged with the University Colleges in Gjøvik, Sør-Trøndelag and Ålesund to form a single university.
    The merger gives the university more comprehensive course offerings and larger research groups. NTNU is now Norway’s largest, most exciting and innovative university.
    NTNU’s interdisciplinary research results in innovations that have great economic and social significance.
    NTNU also has the broadest study offerings of any Norwegian university in the different technological and artistic and aesthetic disciplines.

    Communication activities

    The interest in the above mentioned areas is mostly intended for informative purposes.
    We normally participate to public events organised by the EC and relevant stakeholders or are invited as speakers to express our opinion on specific matters.
    We also organise public events where to discuss with relevant Key stakeholders (and to the extent that is possible) relevant aspects like strategies, implementation status and future perspectives of specific policy areas.
    Among the event we organise:
    An annual public NTNU European Conference (arrived at its 9th edition) in BRussels
    A monthly webinar (named One Hour with Europe) open to all with the possibility for a direct interaction with one guest from EC or other institutions on specific key topics related to the R&I and Education fields.

    Meetings

    21 meetings found. Download meetings

    The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

    1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
