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.
