Abstract

This paper analyses innovation trends in the road freight industry in Norway. The objective has been to map important trends of innovation, and to understand the significance of transport for innovation in other sectors of the economy. The intention has been to develop an analysis with empirical focus on Norwegian road transport of good, but with relevance for the understanding issues related to transport and innovation also outside Norway. The report stars out by drawing up an overall picture of the road transport business in Norway. Among the questions answered are how many, how large and what kinds of firms are in the industry. Some elements of a theoretical analytical framework is developed, and empirical data from interviews and from statistical resources are utilised in the industry analysis.
