We aspire to achieve our goals by: Inspiring people to overcome their disability, achieving dreams and live full lives.

Our Story
1995
The two founders of Made for Movement, Norwegian pair Ånund Olsen and Erik Vegge, were inspired to begin the company back in 1995 and launched the original NF-Walker.
2007
In 2007, Ånund Olsen competed in a Norwegian TV program for entrepreneurs called “The Creator”. He entered with his latest innovation, which was enough to win the whole competition. With that, the Innowalk was born.
2008
Since 2008, Innowalk has been produced and distributed by Made for Movement all over the world.
2011
Over time, both the NF-Walker and Innowalk have evolved, to better serve different needs. E. g. in 2011, the Innowalk Pro, developed for clinical practices and rehabilitation, was launched.
2016
In 2016 the new generation NF-Walker 2 was launched,
2018
and in 2018 the Hibbot entered the market, taking dynamic standing and walking further than ever before.
