What Sensacon does

Sensacon is a Norwegian professional services firm founded in 2008 and headquartered in Molde (Møre og Romsdal), providing business advisory to small and medium-sized enterprises and public-sector entities across Norway. The firm organises its offering into four integrated service pillars: Administration (project management, application/funding support, workflow optimisation), Transactions (process management, valuation, due diligence, negotiation and financing support), Strategy (process facilitation, methodology-based development, and implementation follow-up), and Analysis (financial analysis, market research, due diligence, and bespoke economic scenario modelling). It also offers interim management and management-for-hire mandates, including interim CFO engagements. The current team of six is led by Managing Partner Iver Kristian Arnesen (CPA, formerly an auditor for eight years), alongside three named consultants with credentials from NHH, ESADE, UiB, NTNU, and BI; the firm has disclosed four named consultants in its materials.

The business model is fee-based professional services, with revenue generated from project-based engagements, retainers, and interim management contracts. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; prospective clients are offered a free initial consultation ("uforpliktende og gratis samtale"), after which engagements are scoped and quoted individually. Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, anchored by direct outreach, a content marketing programme (Aktuelt blog, LinkedIn page, email newsletter), and referrals from a network built across 300+ client engagements over 17 years. The firm self-positions as the leading consulting company in the Møre og Romsdal region and explicitly serves clients across Norway.

Sensacon does not develop proprietary technology products; its value lies in advisory expertise, analytical frameworks, and the collective credentials of its consulting team. There are no disclosed APIs, software products, AI/ML capabilities, patents, partnerships, or external funding. The company is privately held with no parent, subsidiaries, or disclosed institutional investors, and revenue figures are not publicly available.
