What Aventi does
Aventia is a Norwegian software vendor, founded in 2005 as Aventia Media and headquartered in Nøtterøy, that builds an integrated platform for streaming, digitally voting on, and managing municipal political meetings in the Nordic region. Its core products are KommuneTV, a live and on-demand streaming platform for political meetings with automatic subtitling, DVR, case bookmarking and WCAG-compliant accessibility; ADA (Aventia Digital Avstemning / Digital Votering), a digital voting and meeting-management solution that handles speaker lists, proposals, automatic substitute summoning, and protocol generation and integrates with municipal sak- og arkivsystemer; and Automatisk Varainnkalling, an automated substitute-representative calling module. The company also sells bundled camera hardware, professional services, and open APIs for integration with external case and archive systems, with a forthcoming next-generation meeting portal (Aventia Møteflyt) scheduled for autumn 2026.
The business serves primarily Norwegian and Swedish municipal and county-municipal governments (kommuner and fylkeskommuner), with recent entry into Denmark and a first customer in Greenland (Kujalleq, via a FirstAgenda channel partnership). At the time of writing the platform is used by more than 250 municipalities. Revenue is generated through annual software subscriptions (KommuneTV, ADA), hardware sales (motorised and fixed-mount cameras, networking infrastructure), and professional services (implementation, training, and ongoing support with extended evening-hour coverage for meeting nights). Pricing is quote-based, annual, and tailored to municipality scope and integration requirements; contracts are won primarily through direct enterprise field sales to municipal administrators and political secretaries, supported by a user forum (Brukerforum), industry events such as Arendalsuka, and an early events-and-webinars programme.
Aventia employs approximately 17-18 staff across development, technical consulting (including a Sweden-based consultant), sales, customer success, and marketing, led by CEO Marius Berg-Storøy and CTO Kristian Borgen. The company is privately held with no recorded external funding, no parent company, and no subsidiaries; it hosts its platform on Norwegian servers using only European suppliers, a positioning that is explicitly aimed at Schrems II and GDPR-sensitive municipal procurement. Strategic integrations with Compilo (political dialogue and case follow-up) and Innocode (citizen app) are extending the platform into a broader Nordic e-democracy stack.

Through integration with Compilo, the platform also offers Politisk dialog and Oppfølging politiske saker modules. The company is developing Aventia Møteflyt, a next-generation meeting portal launching in fall 2026 that will unify all meeting-related processes. The solution emphasizes Norwegian data hosting, GDPR compliance, and universal accessibility.

Aventi partnerships and signals
Strategic signalPartnerships
Three partnerships are on record, tiered minor and core.
- FirstAgendaminorFirstAgenda in Denmark acts as a channel partner bringing Aventia's streaming solutions to customers in Greenland. Through this partnership, Kujalleq municipality (Greenland's southernmost municipality) became an Aventia customer. The collaboration enables closer integration between streaming and digital meeting processes.
- CompilocoreAventia integrated Compilo's Politisk dialog (digital question service between politicians and administration) and Oppfølging politiske saker (political case follow-up tracking from decision to implementation) modules directly into KommuneTV. This provides municipalities with a unified platform combining meeting streaming, voting, political dialogue, and case follow-up. The modules were developed in close dialogue with municipal directors, department heads, and politicians.
- InnocodeminorAventia collaborated with Innocode for a session at Arendalsuka 2026 titled 'Kommunestyret er ikke dødt – det er bare usynlig' (The municipal council is not dead — it's just invisible), exploring how municipalities, local newspapers, and technology suppliers can make local politics more visible, accessible, and relevant.

Aventi competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- OpenGov: OpenGov is a US-based government technology provider offering budgeting, procurement, and civic engagement software to state and local governments. It overlaps with Aventia at the broader eGovernment platform layer rather than in the meeting-streaming niche.
- Tyler Technologies: Tyler Technologies is a large US public-sector software provider with broad municipal ERP, citizen services, and meeting/records solutions. Comparable as a broad incumbent operating across government verticals, including functions adjacent to Aventia's meeting management stack.
- Accela: Accela is a US-based government technology platform for permitting, licensing, and civic services used by state/local agencies. Comparable as a broad-incumbent eGovernment vendor that, like Granicus, could expand into the Nordic municipal streaming/meeting niche.
- Visma: Visma is a major Nordic software provider with public-sector ERP, case management, and document solutions serving Norwegian/Swedish municipalities. It is comparable as a Nordic incumbent operating in adjacent government technology segments where Aventia's sak-og-arkiv integrations also live.
- CivicPlus: CivicPlus is a major US-based provider of government digital services (websites, civic engagement, agenda/meeting management). It serves as a broader-incumbent analog operating in an overlapping product category for local-government customers, though with less Nordic-specific focus than Aventia.
- Diligent: Diligent (formerly including Boardvantage/Galvanize) provides board governance, meeting, and document management software to public-sector and corporate boards. It targets a related but broader market than Aventia, with overlapping features around meeting preparation, agendas, and minutes.
- Tietoevry: Tietoevry is a large Nordic IT services and software provider serving public-sector customers across the Nordics. Comparable as a broad incumbent that competes in adjacent public-sector IT budgets, with the scale and resources to expand into meeting management if it chose to.
Direct peers
- Granicus: Granicus is a leading global provider of government streaming, legislative management, and citizen engagement software (including Legistar and MediaManager). It is the most direct international competitor to Aventia's KommuneTV and ADA digital voting + meeting management stack.
- FirstAgenda: FirstAgenda is a Danish meeting-management and political-governance platform that overlaps with Aventia's ADA and Møteflyt capabilities. It is both a peer (competing meeting portal for Nordic municipal customers) and Aventia's stated channel partner into Denmark and Greenland.
Emerging players
- Compilo: Compilo is a Norwegian political case-management and follow-up platform whose Politisk dialog and Oppfølging politiske saker modules are integrated into Aventia's KommuneTV. It addresses overlapping municipal needs (citizen-politician dialogue, case tracking) and competes for adjacent municipal budget.
