Norwegian deep-tech company Alva Industries has raised €16 million in a funding round led by Nysnø Climate Investments, Sandwater, and Emerald Technology Ventures. The company makes ultra-compact electric motors using its patented FiberPrinting process, which weaves conductive fibres into a motor's stator instead of winding copper wire around an iron core. This produces ironless, slotless motors that are lighter, cogging-free, and offer high torque density — properties valued in robotics, aerospace, medical devices, and defence applications. The capital will fund expanded manufacturing in Norway, product development, and international growth. Alva has hundreds of active customer projects and has previously worked with Lockheed Martin and Boeing.
