About CTD

CTD was founded in Tromsø by Håvard and Siva in fall 2020. Today we are five employees, located in Tromsø, Arendal and Oslo.

Our mission is to develop customised digital tools that simplify, streamline and increase engagement in health personnel training.

Our VR experience began with a four year research project at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). The project explored the learning effect of utilising VR in the education av health personell.

In fall 2021, CTD won two prizes for "Best XR Health Experience" and "Best XR Experience for education" at the Nordic VR Forum in Hamar, Norway. In early 2022, the two first employees of CTD joined the team.
