About the project
One of the main outputs is a periodic analytical report, “Business Index North”. The report provides valuable information for International institutions, National, Regional, and Local authorities, Arctic officials, Educators, Media stakeholders, and students interested in the Arctic.
The BIN reports published in 2017-2022 covered developments in the European part of the Arctic (North Nordic part and the Barents Euro-Arctic Region). Since 2023, the geographic scope of the analysis is the whole Arctic.
The analysis has so far covered topics of sustainable development, socio-economic resilience, innovations, transportation, telecommunication, energy, and socio-economic value creation. Another direction is a combination of BIN analysis with scenario methodology to analyse thed future development of industry and society in Northern Norway.
The BIN project is developed through an international network of academic and research institutions, authorities, commercial partners, experts, and NGOs from the Arctic countries. The project administrator is the High North Center for Business and Governance at Nord University Business School (Norway).
BIN-Arctic-prosjektet utvikles gjennom et internasjonalt nettverk av akademiske og forskningsinstitusjoner, myndigheter, kommersielle partnere, eksperter og NGO-er fra arktiske land. Prosjektadministratoren er Nordområdesenteret ved Handelshøgskolen, Nord universitet (Norge).
