Results
The implementation of two new pre-incubators at the Universidad Politecnica de Valencia and the Ecole Polytechnique can be considered as the main achievement of the project. Although the pre-incubation model of the University of Bielefeld was used as the "good practice" example, the partners at Valencia and Paris have modified the Bielefeld model to fit their pre-incubators in the specific local environments. Thereby, they have both created new, "regional good practice" models of pre-incubation. |
Pre-incubation at
Universidad Politécnica de Valencia
The concept of "Cell of
Opportunity" and its formation process already existed in the UPV prior to the
beginning of USINE. The pre-incubation process as understood in Bielefeld has
been adapted to the UPV environment by splitting it in two parts: CoO
formation, that includes all the activities required to build an
entrepreneurial team and a business plan, and Pre-Incubation, that is
considered as one alternative to the other two possible stages: incubation
and exploitation of the new company. |
