EGGS, Part of Sopra Steria

What EGGS, Part of Sopra Steria does

EGGS, Part of Sopra Steria, is a Norwegian design-driven innovation consultancy founded in 2012 and headquartered in Oslo. It operates through four offices (Bergen, Oslo, Stavanger, Trondheim) with 249 employees, including well over 100 designers, futurists, and business innovators concentrated in its Oslo office. EGGS became a fully integrated subsidiary of Sopra Steria following the merger of Sopra Steria Creative into the EGGS brand, an event that doubled the firm's capacity.

The company delivers professional services across strategy, design, and technology, anchored by its proprietary "Value Diamond" framework that balances the needs of businesses, people, and the planet. Service lines span service design, digital design, business design, content design, innovation advisory, and training programs such as the Hatch business impact masterclass developed with innovation expert Salvador Baille. EGGS also co-developed a design-driven innovation course with DOGA (Design and Architecture Norway) and runs EGGS for Breakfast seminars and a thought leadership publication stream. Client deliverables have included award-winning work such as the EcoAdvisor decision-support system for Kongsberg Maritime (IF Design Award 2024) and Bane NOR's employee portal (ServiceNow Best Employee Portal 2025, 2nd place).

EGGS operates a B2B enterprise consultancy model with co-creation-based engagements, targeted at large Norwegian corporations (Equinor, Kongsberg Maritime/Discovery, Apotek 1), government and public-sector clients (Bane NOR, Bufdir), and selected startups funded through Norway's Design-driven Innovation Program (DIP). Revenue is generated through project-based professional services engagements with no publicly disclosed pricing. Geographic scope is entirely domestic (Norway), with the firm positioned within the broader European footprint of publicly listed parent Sopra Steria (EPA: SOP).
