Among the eight initiators was Inge Bent Kindem, who later became the managing director of Unitech Power Systems until 2024. All the initiators were originally employed by Norsk Engineering A/S.
Shares were also sold to RE Contractor and Norsk Hammerverk AS. In the summer of 1988, the employees of Unitech Engineering bought the shares from RE Contractor and Norsk Hammerverk AS. The goal was for only employees to own shares in the company.
Unitech Engineering was to operate as a consulting engineering business within the disciplines of electrical and instrumentation – both onshore and offshore. In addition, technical drawing services were to be offered.
