The Design Council is a national strategic body for design in Norway. Our aim is to communicate the benefits of design to Norwegian businesses. Our aim is to increase Norwegian businesses´ understanding, knowledge and use of design as a tool for innovation.

In order to achieve this we:

• Give companies advice on how to use design as a strategic resource and source for innovation
• Promote the innovative effects of design through our website, publications, workshops, seminars and exhibitions
• Collaborate with other organizations - such as Innovation Norway - in order to make design accessible to companies all over Norway
• International promotion of Norwegian design and Norwegian designers
