nyetablerte

Nyetablerte is a Norwegian adjective and noun form used to describe entities that are newly established or recently founded. In everyday language it is commonly applied to organizations, businesses, or institutions, with the phrase nyetablerte bedrifter or nyetablerte foretak frequently appearing in news and statistical reports. The term derives from the verb etablere (to establish) prefixed by ny- (new).

In grammar, nyetablerte functions as the plural form of nyetablert and is used to modify plural nouns, as in nyetablerte bedrifter. The related noun form nyetablering refers to the act or process of becoming established, while nyetablerte can also be used as a standalone descriptor in written Norwegian.

In statistical and policy contexts, nyetablerte typically refers to organizations that have started operations within a defined recent period, often the last 12 months. Data on nyetablerte foretak are used to measure entrepreneurship, business dynamism, regional development, and economic vitality. Such statistics may be broken down by sector, region, size, ownership, and information about the founders.

The term emphasizes novelty relative to the existing business stock and does not imply success, growth, or maturity. It contrasts with etablerte (established) or voksende (growing) to indicate different stages in the lifecycle of a business or organization. While nyetablerte is closely related to the English term startup in some contexts, its precise use in Norwegian is often tied to time windows defined by statistical or administrative definitions.
