Press release -
Turnpike expands into Norway – Meeting market demand with the right leader.
Stockholm, Sweden – March 6, 2025 – Turnpike Group, a pioneer in wearable technology solutions for frontline staff, is proud to announce its expansion into Norway.
Turnpike has already seen strong adoption in Norway, with forward-thinking clients embracing its innovative platform. With growing demand, the company now takes the next step—ensuring hands-on support and an even closer collaboration with its customers.
This marks a significant milestone as the company establishes its first international office, a natural next step driven by strong market interest and the need for local presence to support Norwegian businesses more closely.
Thomas Berglund to Lead Turnpike Norway
To spearhead operations in Norway, Thomas Berglund has been appointed as the country lead. With over a decade of experience as a senior manager in the Telecom & IT industry across Sweden and Norway, Thomas brings a wealth of knowledge and entrepreneurial spirit to Turnpike. In 1999, he founded Edvantage Group, which became one of Europe’s leading e-learning companies before its successful sale in 2011. Additionally, he co-founded two MedTech companies, successfully leading them to acquisitions in 2007 and 2014.
Carl Norberg, Founder of Turnpike Group, welcomes Thomas Berglund and highlights the significance of this moment:
"For us to take the leap into our first new country, we needed two things: clear client demand and the right captain to lead the way. Now we have both, and we’re kicking things off today. Thomas joining us is a game-changer—his leadership, experience, and grit will be invaluable as we establish Turnpike Norway."
"I believe Turnpike has something truly special to offer the market. That’s why I’ve chosen to step in—not just as an investor, but also as an active part of the team and Country Lead for Norway. Turnpike addresses a key challenge in the retail and hospitality industries: getting actionable information to frontline employees in real time. This improves service, creates happier customers, and drives higher loyalty and sales. I’m very excited to embark on this journey", says Thomas Berglund.
Patrik Lundström, CEO of Turnpike Group, comments on the decision to expand:
"Establishing a presence in Norway is a natural evolution for Turnpike. The demand for our solution is clear, and we are committed to delivering world-class support and innovation to our growing customer base in the region.
