CIRCULAR REPUBLIC’s Post

The crucial role of Innovation Hubs - Innovation Hubs play an important role in nurturing innovation and supporting Startups on their journey to success. At InnoQube Switzerland, we recognize how essential these ecosystems are for visionary entrepreneurs. They offer access to crucial resources, mentorship, and a collaborative environment that enables groundbreaking ideas to flourish. A prime example of this is The Engine Accelerator at MIT, where Startups like Foray Bioscience are making incredible strides in biomanufacturing and sustainable technology. As highlighted in a recent article, Ashley Beckwith and her team at Foray are developing revolutionary methods to create wood-like materials from plant cells, aiming to reduce the need for deforestation and promote environmental sustainability. Innovation Hubs like this offer invaluable support, from state-of-the-art lab spaces to a community of like-minded innovators. This environment allows Startups to tackle the world's most challenging problems and scale their solutions effectively. At InnoQube Switzerland, we are committed to nurturing the next generation of innovators. By providing the right tools, guidance, and collaborative networks, we empower startups to push boundaries and drive impactful change.

Yesterday we saw again what benefit a neutral third party trust provider like the Urban Tech Helsinki Incubator can bring to the table. Well one of them at least. We had and incredibly open and fruitful event where the incubator startups met with our stakeholders from Business Helsinki Helsingin kaupunki – Helsingfors stad – City of Helsinki, University of Helsinki, Metropolia University of Applied Sciences and Aalto University. They sat on the same side of the table and discussed how the startups could help the stakeholders and how to improve their solutions to match the needs of cities and other customers. I believe some of the startups took good strides forward in a short time. Lesson learned. Sit together and discuss openly. Be on the same side - at least in principle. We are all trying to make good. Benerg, ScanwAi, Codemenders Oy, Cero Hero, Retake, lensor.io, WasteLocker, Wood. Thank you for your participation as well. #Smartcities #startups #incubator #thirdpartytrust #discussing #sustainability
