Bjarne Gotfred Eriksen (31 July 1886 – 13 November 1976) was a Norwegian businessperson and fencer.
[3] He was hired as a Supreme Court barrister in 1917 but started a career in Norsk Hydro in 1926.
He was originally head of the judicial and financial department but was promoted to Director-General (CEO) in 1941.
After the German occupation of Norway, the Germans wanted to further increase the output of heavy water; the situation escalated until Hydro's top management protested, and in early 1943, Bjarne Eriksen, the company's managing director, was arrested and sent to a concentration camp in Germany.
