This Web page is expected to be completed on May 1, 2009, when documentation on the case in which Norway's company Norway Invest has suffered losses.
It is said in a press release on the website that Norway Invest has developed two major projects in Kosovo during the 2001-2003 period, but that in 2003 it was forced to withdraw after realizing that their Kosovo partners will not observe the agreement.
The projects were on emergency communication network and a digital "e-governmental" data center, which was named "Kosovo Data Centre."
