a robust and reliable Kitron and industrial partner for Kongsberg," says Heine
Østby, Managing Director, Kitron Norway. "The long-standing collaboration
between our two companies continues to strengthen, and Kitron's ongoing
investment in a new production facility in Arendal is well aligned with this
