Høyteknologisenteret, Bergen

Høyteknologisenteret is a major research center in Bergen housing laboratories, offices, and workshops dedicated to technological development across multiple scientific fields. The facility focuses on information technology, biotechnology, marine biology, and environmental research.

The center was established in 1985 as Norway's first research park and constructed between 1987 and 1990 on the former Marineholmen site. This founding marked the beginning of a new model linking academic research with industrial application in the country.

The center brings together students and established researchers in shared workspaces where knowledge flows between academic and professional environments. This mixing of perspectives shapes how people here approach problem-solving and scientific collaboration.

The center is located in Marineholmen and easily accessible by public transport for visitors and staff. It helps to know in advance that many areas require research or student credentials for entry.

The center houses advanced supercomputers for demanding scientific calculations and simulations that support complex research questions across disciplines. These high-powered machines enable researchers to pursue projects that would otherwise be impossible.
