Halti Næringshage AS

What Halti Næringshage AS does

Halti Næringshage AS is a Norwegian regional business development organization (næringshage) founded in 2001 and headquartered at Hovedveien 2 in Storslett, Nordreisa municipality, Nord-Troms. The company is a designated participant in Norway's national næringshageprogram, receiving ongoing public co-funding from SIVA (the state's industrial instrument) and Troms og Finnmark Fylkeskommune. It serves small and medium-sized enterprises, startups, and regional public-sector actors across Nord-Troms, providing subsidized advisory, project management, office rental, and event orchestration. Over 20+ years it has advised hundreds of businesses and built dense regional networks connecting firms with financial institutions, FoU bodies, investors, and public agencies.

The core service portfolio comprises three lines: Forretningsutvikling (business development consulting covering strategy, grant applications, marketing, recruitment, and competency development); Prosjektledelse (project management mandates for organizations and municipalities, including long-term project leadership); and Kontorutleie (office and meeting-room rental in Storslett, including the Store Stue and Blåtind meeting rooms, available on half-day, daily, or long-term contract via the MakePlans booking system). On top of this base, Halti operates multiple specialized programs: the Målbedrift-programmet (subsidized innovation services with co-payment pricing), Trainee Arena Nord-Troms (graduate recruitment with a 75% regional retention rate), Yrkes- og utdanningsmessene (annual career and education fairs drawing 1000+ students and ~100 businesses across two locations), Leverandørutvikling Havbruk Nord (aquaculture supplier network of ~80 suppliers and 10 companies in Troms and Finnmark), and Arena Nord-Troms secretariat. Recent additions include the Smaksløftet: Nord-Troms food-tourism competence program (2025-2027), the Arctic Flavour (Smaken av Arktis) project, the Cobot collaborative-robotics project, and the Klimapartnere Troms climate-transition initiative.

The revenue model is a hybrid of professional services and recurring public funding. Advisory and project management are billed as professional-services fees at reduced rates under the næringshageprogram subsidy structure; office rental is recurring revenue; and SIVA/Fylkeskommune grants (structured as ongoing support within the national program, not one-off capital) cover the bulk of operating costs. Distribution is sales-led via direct advisory relationships, the Målbedrift program, and event-driven outreach (frokostmøter breakfast meetings, career fairs, Forskningsdagene research festival). First-touch engagement for entrepreneurs is provided free of charge, converting to paid mandates as relationships deepen.

• SIVA (Selskapet for Industrivekst SF): Norway's state-owned instrument for industrial and business development that funds and governs the næringshageprogram. The broader incumbent under which Halti operates and which shapes funding priorities.
