Talent Norway supports the Oslo Jazz Festival's talent initiative Oslojazz Talent.

Talent Norway was founded on 21.1.2015 by Sparebankstiftelsen DNB, Stiftelsen Cultiva and the State v/Ministry of Culture with the purpose of contributing to talent development at a high level within the arts and culture.

Talent Norway's investments have contributed to the creation of nearly 1,500 talent positions worth over 130 million kroner, of which over 80 million are from private donors.

All initiatives are made in collaboration with leading environments and institutions and the financial contribution is directly linked to the talent development that is created and carried out in the individual project.

Talent Norway's work is to stimulate the sharing of expertise on talent development across genres.
