A jumpstart for ambitious entrepreneurs

An incubator can provide expertise, networking, and financing for startups.

Is your company newly established and in need of office space as well as access to expertise, networking, and financing? In that case, you can apply for a spot in one of our three incubators: Startuplab, Aleap, or ShareLab.

Empirical evidence shows that physical proximity contributes to more interaction. Sharing insights, knowledge, and experiences with others usually brings something positive in return. That's why we, in Forskningsparken, create common areas, establish startup spaces and incubators for new companies, work on conscious co-location, set up spaces for various work processes, meeting places for sharing and collaboration, professional development, and inspiration.

Startuplab: Technology

Startuplab is an incubator, accelerator, and early-stage investor for Norway's most ambitious technology startups, spanning six different industry programs. Founded in Forskningsparken in 2012, Startuplab is now present in both Oslo and Bergen, with nearly 100 active member companies at any given time. Since its inception, Startuplab has made investments in over 130 companies.

Aleap: Health

Aleap is the largest incubator for health startups in the Nordics. Through the unique Aleap™ Model, they help ambitious entrepreneurs build successful growth companies, providing them with world-class competency, network, and funding.

ShareLab: Biotech

ShareLab is Scandinavia's leading biotech incubator for academia, startups, and industry. It is a space where the next generation of biotech companies is fostered. ShareLab provides office space, fully equipped laboratories, lab management, a professional and commercial network, as well as guidance—all located on two floors in Oslo Science Park.
