Incubation

Supporting you to grow.

We create environments at our sites that support innovative businesses to grow. Our innovation sites provide flexible space in terms of type (workshops, office, pod desk, communal working, conferencing and meeting room) and size.

We often talk about supporting businesses through the “death valley curve”.  The “business death valley” describes a critical period in the lifecycle of a new product or technology when it experiences a significant drop or stagnation in its growth or adoption rate before eventually recovering or gaining traction again.

Our flexible approach to business support allows us to support businesses that are at that critical point in their scaling journey. Whether it’s support with strategy development or with finding the most suitable space for you as you hit each stage of your businesses growth, we are here to help.
