Where can your entrepreneurial dream find a home? Who can guide your complex and knowledge intensive biotechnology venture?

Umeå Biotech Incubator, AB (UBI) is a unique first of its kind "wet lab" incubator enterprise in the Swedish academic system. UBI's first steps as an EU-supported joint university-regional project on campus showed that directed focus, and selected business expertise and aptitude allowed for a successful "spin-off venture" creation mechanism. Eight of 15 incubator projects successfully received investor funding!

Today, UBI is a key player in the innovation system for the region; enabling and facilitating new venture creation. Located within a commercial science park, UBI continues to provide funding and to create a nurturing environment to foster your "entrepreneurial" spirit. UBI brings biotech projects at various stages from discovery-to-innovation early start, proof-of-principle stage, and pre-seed projects to first round finance ventures together under one roof. Experienced UBI internal and external project advisors with a blend of science know-how coupled with strong business acumen bring appropriate best practices for commercialization success. UBI also offers help to address project management and intellectual property issues. When your project achieves its milestones, UBI can prepare you and your project for "seed" financing and investor meetings. UBI is here for you. Your company - your success is our legacy!
