Background

Immersive technologies such as virtual and augmented reality (VR and AR – often referred to as “XR”)
are seen as technologies that can make a real difference in our collective future. In the eastern parts
of Norway (Innlandet region), a unique collaboration between public administration, local businesses,
and academia has led to an enormous focus on XR, games, and gamification, with world-leading companies,
research, and projects taking place in the region, including Norway’s first
VR/AR study program.

To help this ecosystem grow, develop, and shape the future of work for organizations and companies
in Norway and internationally, VRINN Immersive Learning Cluster was created. VRINN acts as a technology
cluster that establishes and supports the Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) ecosystem in
the Norwegian Innlandet region while staying in contact with national and international partners.
VRINN offers support in the application of VR and AR technologies, in the development of new products
and services, and in the exploitation of previously untapped potential. The field of activity focuses
on immersive learning.

VRINN members exchange ideas and knowledge and participate in joint innovation projects to develop
next-generation technology solutions in areas such as learning, training, and knowledge transfer.
We strive to develop scalable solutions for an international market that have a global impact.

Several members of VRINN as well as the cluster administration are located in
PARK entrepreneur and business house
in Hamar, while others are located elsewhere in Norway, such as Oslo and the Oslo Region.
