After many years in a foreign company, it is exciting for me to be part of the journey out into the world with Bliksund. The company has impressed me since day one and has a portfolio with great international potential. In addition to innovative solutions, the company also has a strong culture and great people with whom it is a pleasure to now be able to work. I have been looking forward to this for a long time.

International potential


Since Monterro invested in the company in 2021, Bliksund has strengthened its focus on internationalization and investments outside Norway. During last year, the company entered a partnership with Systematic in Denmark and acquired the Danish company Incendium, which is a leader in video streaming. This is part of the company's strategy for further expansion in an international market with great potential.
