Develop skills and network at ITSA Growth
Our mission is to give early stage growth companies the tools, network and funding leads to support the building of international growth companies.
The ITSA Growth Program is developed and facilitated by Validé
in collaboration with our partners.
Validé is ranked as one of Norway’s best incubators. Validé created the first accelerator-program in Norway, back in 2016.
We build our competence at more than 25 years of experience in developing and investing high risk capital
in new companies. We are early phase specialists and have a
current portfolio of investment in 74 companies.
ITSA Growth is designed to give
companies business development tools, network, investor leads
and skills to get fundraising ready and to grow. The program will
take companies through five essential themes: Know yourself,
Due diligence & Fundraising, Know your market, Strategies for
raising capital and Strategies for Growth.
Next ITSA Growth program will be announced here

«When growing a company in an extremely competitive industry, like the energy storage market, we have no time to loose. Therefore it was no doubt for Beyonder to attend ITSA Growth after we were introduced to the topics and the experienced partners in the program. We needed an arena where we could test and experiment “off the record” our busines concepts without having fear to fail and at the same time build relationship to potential new business partners. ITSA Growth is highly recommended by the Beyonder management team for all companies that aim for this opportunity.»
Bjarte Magnussen, CFO i Beyonder
