The Research Council FORNY2020 programme established a cooperation with Norwegian Design Council in 2011 about innovation and design. Their most important project so far has been the «Salmon Lice Trap», a commercialisation project at BTO. The funding awarded to the Salmon Lice Trap was a pilot project in the design programme.
In 2012, the design programme is continuing, and this August FORNY2020 announced that four projects have been awarded funding for design.
