How to set up a spin-off company
Why should you set up a UG spin-off company?
- Spin-off companies gain credibility thanks to the reputation of the University of Gdansk
- Companies may lease premises from UG on preferential terms
- Legal and content-related support is provided by Univentum Labs - a special purpose vehicle of UG
Spin-off companies are as diverse as the projects around which they are formed. That is why we treat each application individually. We tailor all conditions to the situation and the needs of UG researchers and scientific teams.
