About the AFINO Research Centre
AFINO (Norwegian: Ansvarlig Forskning og Innovasjon i Norge) is a network and learning centre for responsible innovation and corporate social responsibility in Norway. The centre was established in 2019 for a five-year time period, and is funded by the Norwegian Research Council through the programme SAMANSVAR.
Headed by NTNU in collaboration with BI, UiB and OsloMet, AFINO consists of a network of university partners and research projects. Our associated research partners are UiO TIK, UiS, GenØk and HVL. Together, we explore how research and innovation may better address future societal challenges through research and learning laboratories.
AFINO organizes activities and events to promote better integration between researchers, the industry, the community and policy makers. Our goal is to build new learnings arenas and a common understanding of what responsible innovation is.
