Kongsberg Gruppen is an international technology group headquartered in Norway, that supplies high-technology systems to customers in the merchant marine, defence, aerospace, offshore oil and gas industries, and renewable and utilities industries.[2]

In 2018, Kongsberg had revenues of NOK 14.381 billion, and 6,842 employees in more than 25 countries.[3] The company is headquartered in Kongsberg.

It comprises three business areas:

Kongsberg is a continuation of Kongsberg Weapons Factory (Kongsberg Våpenfabrikk - KV) (1814–1987). After KV's restructuring in 1987, defence activities continued as the company Norsk Forsvarsteknologi (NFT). In 1995 the company changed its name to Kongsberg Gruppen.

Kongsberg was listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange in 1993 and is a public company. The Norwegian Ministry of Trade, Industry and Fisheries is the largest shareholder with a 50.001 percent interest.[4]

Markets outside of Norway pose a growing and increasingly important part of business and represented approximately 80% of revenue in 2015.
