Our Story
To empower OVERLOOKED talents!
Recognizing the untapped potential of underrepresented founders; their valuable skills, diverse perspectives, and motivations—we aim to provide a platform for them to thrive in Norway.
Our program tackles these barriers of entry:
-
In Norway, many important agreements and trades happen within professional networks. Entrepreneurs without relevant connections may struggle to access their target markets
-
It's crucial to understand how business works in Norway, but newcomers often lack this knowledge. Entrepreneurs at Charge will benefit from being hosted by industry partners who offer experience and create a supportive work environment
-
Trust is crucial in Norwegian business culture. Entrepreneurs need knowledge of both formal and informal rules to build trust, make informed decisions, and maintain successful business relationships.
