About Kongsberg Catapult

The Kongsberg Catapult is a center for knowledge sharing and development across businesses and academia within advanced system technology. It offers access to advanced facilities for prototyping, simulation, and testing, along with specialized expertise in systems development and integration.

The Kongsberg Catapult is one of the 13 catapults in Norway. It is particularly closely related to the two domains Sustainable Energy and Manufacturing Technology and was developed to help bring new green technologies to market faster, and with less risk.

Enjoy an exclusive virtual twin demo in the lab

Through test arenas and practical support across the full product development cycle - from concept through validation - the Kongsberg Catapult makes it easier for companies of all sizes to adopt new technologies and bring competitive, sustainable solutions to market.

TECHNIA are proud sponsors of the Kongsberg Catapult and have developed a virtual twin of a physical drone built on the 3DXPERIENCE platform, now available for live testing in the lab environment. Join the event for an exclusive tour to the Kongsberg Catapult and see it live in action!
