The Launchpad for Innovative Norwegian Companies (LINC) is a collaborative program between the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI), Innovation Norway and NADIC– supported by the Royal Norwegian Embassy and its Defense Attaché Office, and the Norwegian General Consulate in San Francisco.

Eight selected Norwegian companies addressing the urgent national security needs of the Norwegian and U.S. militaries are paired with U.S. service providers to accelerate innovation. This is achieved through coaching on how to navigate the U.S. military-industry ecosystem, connecting directly with end users, and introductions to key U.S. investors and procurement officials.
