Menon provides economic analyses and advice to companies, organizations and authorities. We combine economic and commercial expertise in fields such as industrial organization and competitive economy, strategy, finance and organizational design, and social profitability. We use research-based methods in our analyses and work closely with leading academics in most disciplines. Menon's analyses provide a solid knowledge foundation for public sector investment decisions and prioritizations, and we have a framework agreement with the Norwegian Ministry of Finance for the quality assurance of major public investments (QA-scheme).
