Michael Width Endresens Fond For Sunnmør Næringsliv

Michael Width Endresens Fond For Sunnmør Næringsliv is a grant-making foundation based in Oslo, Norway working on science & research.

Michael Width Endresens fond for Sunnmørsk næringsliv is a grant-making fund established under the testament of Michael With Endresen (1873–1938). Its income supports scientific practical and theoretical investigations of special interest and importance to business in Sunnmøre, with Ålesund city, and where feasible carries out such work in or from that district. The fund may also support other measures to promote the district's business life, including cottage industry. It is administered jointly with the Nansenfondet and the associated funds under a shared board appointed by the Det Norske Videnskaps-Akademi, and an advisory council of three members helps decide how the income is used. Its accounts and administration are handled by UNIFOR, the foundation for funds and endowments at the University of Oslo. The fund's initial endowment was set at kr. 620 000 after deductions, and it has been managed under the same rules as the Nansenfondet.
