General information: 

The ticket to a successful business venture

Uppsala Innovation Centre (UIC) is one of the leading business
incubators for growth companies in Sweden. Nine out of ten UIC alumni
companies remain active in the market today. What’s more, UBI Index 2014
ranked UIC as the world’s 18th best business incubator with a
university connection.

Our goal is to help businesses achieve sustainable and viable growth.

“UIC is the world’s 18th best business incubator with a university connection.”
UBI Index 2014

UIC is industry-independent. It provides qualified advice and support
for entrepreneurs, scientists, innovators and management in their
efforts to commercialize their ideas. Moreover, UIC provides financial
assistance as well as access to commercial and technology networks. We
do not take ownership in the companies. Instead we focus on their
business development – not on office rentals.

The UIC model includes six business development programs and 60 carefully selected business coaches from the commercial sector, all focused on helping
companies achieve their stated goals. Moreover, UIC has a network of
about 20 specialist industrialization coaches experienced in moving from prototype to series production.

UIC is located in Uppsala, Östhammar and Södertälje, the latter just south of Stockholm.

UIC is owned equally by STUNS (the Foundation for Collaboration between the Universities in Uppsala, Business, and the Public Sector), the municipality of UppsalaSLU Holding, and Uppsala University Holding Company (UUAB).

UIC is part of the Swedish national incubator program Business Incubation for Growth Sweden (B.I.G. Sweden), which is run by Almi Företagspartner. Moreover, UIC is a member of Swedish Incubators & Science Parks (SISP) the trade association for Swedish incubators and science parks.
