University of Luxembourg (Uni.lu) yesterday opened a startup incubator that will complement an entrepreneurship program launched last summer and is open to staff, students and alumni, according to Paperjam.

The University of Luxembourg Incubator offers office space, dedicated infrastructure and access to the university’s resources, admin support and mentoring, as well as access to a national and international business network and visibility through domestic media and showcase events.

Portfolio businesses will be able to move into non-university incubators, such as the nearby Technoport, if they meet the relevant criteria, through partnership agreements.

The incubator is open to companies from any sector, such as fintech, biotech, educational technology and food services.

The incubator will welcome up to a dozen teams per cohort and is initially located in the student lounge building with plans to move it into the House of Arts and Students, the construction of which is set to be finished later this year.
