About UBI

The Umeå Biotech Incubator is an entity that can help you push forward your ideas with as much of the ingredients you require as possible. It will provide the right environment (including lab facilities) and expertise advice to help your commercial idea achieve success where possible. The idea is to have a gathering of diverse projects and to enable interaction between projects. So if you are an organic chemist making a biologically active mimic protein and you require extensive expertise in cell biology and cell culture-that cell biologist may be next door!

In principle, project proposals may be very polished or may require additional help in terms of planning and outlook. External consultants working with UBI are available to help you with that. The UBI can also provide you with names of lawyers for initial contact and if the project is accepted then UBI may be able to provide additional resources to offset the legal costs.
