Amedia AS is a Norwegian media group owned by the Amedia Foundation and is considered the country’s largest newspaper publisher.

As of 2025, the group have more than 100 local, regional and national titles, in addition to 20 partner newspapers in Norway. Amedia acquired the Danish media house Berlingske Media in 2024 and in October 2025, Amedia and Berlingske Media entered into a cross-ownership agreement with the Danish media group JFM. The company also holds a share in the Swedish media company Bonnier.

Amedia was established in 2012 through a merger of the media groups A-Pressen and Edda Media. Ownership has changed several times, including in 2016 when Sparebankstiftelsen DNB took over ownership from the Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions (LO), Telenor and the Freedom of Expression Foundation (Fritt Ord), and subsequently established the Amedia Foundation as the new owner.

The group previously operated printing activities in Russia, but transferred these in 2022 to editor Dmitry Muratov and the newspaper Novaya Gazeta.

As of 2025, the chief executive officer of Amedia is Anders Opdahl, while André Støylen is director of the Amedia Foundation and chair of Amedia’s board.
