EVRY NORGE AS

Their core work

EVRY is one of Scandinavia's largest IT services companies, providing digital transformation, enterprise software, and managed services to businesses across the Nordic region. In H2020, they participated as an industry partner in projects focused on open data marketplaces and linked business data — contributing their expertise in data integration, platform development, and commercial deployment of data-driven services. Their role in EU research reflects an interest in establishing open data standards and infrastructure that could be adopted in their large-scale commercial IT engagements. Note: EVRY merged with Finnish Tieto in 2019 to form TietoEVRY, so this organization may now operate under that brand.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

EVRY's two projects span 2015–2019 and are tightly related: both address open data infrastructure and commercial data marketplace models, making the evolution more of a progression than a pivot. They moved from a domain-specific angle — property data markets — to a broader cross-sector challenge, building a pan-European business knowledge graph. This suggests a deliberate strategy of using EU project participation to develop and validate open data capabilities that complement their commercial IT services portfolio. No keyword data is available to confirm finer-grained shifts.

EVRY was moving toward open linked data infrastructure at European scale, but their 2019 merger into TietoEVRY makes it uncertain whether this trajectory continued under the new entity.

How they like to work

EVRY has participated exclusively as a consortium partner, never as project coordinator, which is typical for large IT companies that contribute industrial validation and deployment capacity rather than research leadership. With 15 unique partners across 7 countries from just 2 projects, they engaged in sizeable consortia, suggesting they are comfortable operating in multi-stakeholder international environments. This profile — large company, industry partner role, no repeat-partner data visible — points to a contributor who brings credibility and deployment reach rather than long-term collaborative relationships with specific research groups.

EVRY worked with 15 distinct partners spread across 7 countries in just two projects, indicating broad European consortium participation. Their network likely spans data infrastructure providers, public sector bodies, and research institutions involved in open data standardization.

What sets them apart

EVRY brings the rare combination of large-scale commercial IT operations and direct experience in EU open data marketplace projects — making them a credible industry anchor for consortia needing both technical implementation muscle and market validation. As one of the Nordic region's largest IT firms, they offer access to enterprise clients across Norway, Sweden, and the Baltics who could serve as early adopters or pilot users for data-driven research outputs. However, their 2019 merger into TietoEVRY means any future partnership should be directed at the merged entity.

Highlights from their portfolio

• euBusinessGraph
  Tackled the ambitious challenge of linking company registry data across Europe into a unified business knowledge graph — directly relevant to any consortium working on commercial data interoperability or B2B data products.
