Increasing electrification and automation are creating demand for motors that combine low weight, compact form factor, precise control and high performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alva has developed FiberPrinting\u2122, a patented manufacturing technology for electric motor windings. The technology enables very thin and lightweight frameless motors with high torque density and smooth motion without cogging. This gives customers greater design freedom in compact electric systems where precision, weight and performance are critical<em>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8211; Electrification is one of the most important industrial transformations of our time. Alva\u2019s motors have the potential to improve performance across a wide range of electric systems, and the company is building industrial technology from Norway with global relevance. We are impressed by the team\u2019s ambition, execution capabilities and ability to develop world-leading electric motor technology, says<strong> Simen Malmin, Senior Project Manager at Nysn\u00f8 Climate Investments.<\/strong> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Strong industrial interest and international investor group<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alva was founded in Trondheim in 2017 and has in recent years developed from a technology company into a commercial supplier of motors for demanding industrial customers. The company is experiencing increasing demand for compact and precise motor solutions, particularly within robotics, optronics, aerospace, medical technology, semiconductor equipment and defence-related applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The investment round is led by Nysn\u00f8, Sandwater and Emerald Technology Ventures, on behalf of Nabtesco Technology Ventures. Existing investors, including Statkraft Ventures and EnvisionTech, are also participating. Samsung Ventures\u2019 investment from December 2025 is converted into shares as part of the financing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The funding will be used to expand manufacturing capacity in Norway, continue developing Alva\u2019s product portfolio and strengthen the company\u2019s international commercial presence. Alva currently has a broad customer pipeline across both commercial and defence-related markets and has established dialogue with leading OEMs across several target segments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>&#8211; Alva is on a mission to power a new generation of machines that are stronger, lighter,<\/em> <em>safer, and more reliable.
