Trondheim, 9 March 2018: The new IoT ProtoLab in Trondheim is opening its doors today for entrepreneurs, scientists and students who want to develop new Internet of Things services and products. The new powerhouse created by Telenor Group and Wireless Trondheim aims to increase innovation, new national competencies and promote competitiveness amongst Norwegian entrepreneurs. "Exactly one year ago we launched Telenor-NTNU AI-Lab and it is a pleasure to announce another technology powerhouse in Trondheim," says Sigve Brekke, Telenor Group CEO.
