Important results from the project
The project aimed to strengthen the development of new knowledge-intensive companies. This was achieved through a dynamic incubation process with business coaching, expert consulting, access to networks, and collaboration with other incubators and international networks. As a result, early-stage entrepreneurs and teams gained stronger conditions to develop sustainable and scalable business ideas.
Expected long term effects
The project is expected to contribute long-term to a stronger innovation environment in the region, with more sustainable and scalable companies. Through collaboration between academia, industry, and international networks, competence, investor attractiveness, and global competitiveness are strengthened. This lays the foundation for growth, jobs, and solutions to global challenges, while positioning the region as a hub in deeptech, additive manufacturing, sustainable, and space innovation.
Approach and implementation
The project was carried out as planned and enabled us to further develop the incubation process. As an Excellence incubator, we offered startups a quality-certified environment with targeted support. Activities were delivered by Innovatum’s business team together with external experts and in close collaboration with partners such as Almi, VGR, EKN, BRG, and the West Sweden Chamber of Commerce. Cooperation worked well and activities were appropriate to achieve the project’s goals.
