ESA BIC Sweden

Innovatum Science Park in Trollhattan runs the western centre of ESA BIC Sweden, where space and deeptech startups incubate for up to 24 months. Applications are open permanently rather than by cohort, to Swedish companies no more than five years old, and the award is EUR 50,000 for product development and IPR with 80 hours of technical support, equity-free. Each of the four centres has its own draft incubator agreement.
