SINTEF was founded in 1950 by the Norwegian Institute of Technology (NTH) as an industrial research arm, later becoming independent in 1980. It grew rapidly in the 1970s, driven by Norway’s expanding oil industry, and evolved into a major research foundation. The SINTEF Group was formed in the 1980s, incorporating multiple specialized institutes. SINTEF maintains a strong partnership with NTNU, sharing laboratories, research projects, and personnel, while also collaborating with the University of Oslo and international research institutions. | |||
