Important results from the project
Yes, the goals were met. The project led to many new innovative companies and four important results: 1) Start of the investment company Kick Capital, 2) assignment to support companies throughout Kalmar County, 3) increased knowledge and networks through peer reviews and ERFA meetings, and 4) strengthened collaboration with Linnaeus University´s innovation office through joint involvement in the project with Vinnova as an active party.

Approach and implementation
The project was implemented as an integrated part of our incubator process and has been developed through Peer reviews, structured exchange of experience, other collaborative projects funded within the program (e.g. Pre-step). The biggest external influencing factor has been that half of the project period was implemented during the Corona pandemic, which meant a number of internal and external challenges as well as new opportunities.
