Umeå Biotech Incubator (UBI) is a state of the art biotech incubator what strives to transform ideas and innovations from academia and health care to real benefit for patients and society. 

We do this by offering innovators a unique combination of lab facilities, business coaching, product development, team evaluation and professional expertise in acquisition of venture capital, IPR and marketing strategy.

Although our office and facilities are located in the heart of northern Sweden - we evaluate ideas and projects from the whole country.

Our closest partners comprise of Umeå University, Västerbottens läns landsting (VLL), Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (SLU), Norrlands Universitetssjukhus (NUS) and Försvarets forskningsinstitut (FOI). 

Since the start in 2004 UBI has seen the start of more than 15 companies, and our projects have a high success rate for landing financial grants from VINNOVA and other external funding.
